How can I change the UUID of a snapshot? #37

Hi. I can't find a proper function to change the UUID of a snapshot. How can we change the UUID of a snaphot?

Hi ceremcem,

There is no kernel API function for a running file system to change the UUID of a subvolume, so the fact that you cannot find it is right.

Okay, thanks for the answer. I'll request this feature in the mailing list.
