I'm running a backup script that every hour makes snapshots of my partitions and then rsyncs those snapshots over to an external drive. I've noticed two things about this:
- Every time I make a snapshot, I get more and more "ext3_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 811222" errors
- Recently, I started getting these messages "Node /dev/mapper/lvm1-usr--snapshot-cow was not removed by udev. Falling back to direct node removal."
Why are these things happening, and what can I do about it?
