According to Dag-Erling Smørgrav:
> client2% rsync --archive --delete /vol server:/backup/client2
> server% for vol in /backup/* ; do mksnap_ffs $vol $vol/.snap/`date` ; done

My experience with the sysutils/freebsd-snapshot, which enable automatic
snapshot creation (à la NetApp) is that after a few created snapshots, the
whole system just locks up.  This was in 6.0-6.1 days, maybe 6.2 has
improved but they seem very fragile :(

I am eagerly waiting for ZFS.
