how to find out total capacity and raid level of btrfs file system
I know df does not report the correct size for btrfs raid systems. Is there any other way to find out the total capacity of a btrfs file system? Or at least the raid level for data / metadata? My test system is Ubuntu 10.10 alpha with btrfs 0.19 and a 2.6.35 kernel (don''t know which rc). # uname -a Linux ubuntu 2.6.35-12-generic #17-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 26 18:48:06 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux I created a raid1 system consisting of two 8GB devices (so total capacity would be 8 GB for system + metadata + data) # mkfs.btrfs -d raid1 -m raid1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 # mount /dev/sdb1 /media/btrfs Now I gather all information I can with btrfs: # btrfs filesystem show /dev/sdb1 Label: none uuid: dc691a5d-187e-4cb4-a94a-d12dabdffde4 Total devices 2 FS bytes used 28.00KB devid 1 size 8.00GB used 2.03GB path /dev/sdb1 devid 2 size 8.00GB used 2.01GB path /dev/sdc1 # btrfs filesystem df /media/btrfs/ Data: total=1.01GB, used=0.00 Metadata: total=1.01GB, used=24.00KB System: total=12.00MB, used=4.00KB Is there a way to find out how devid 1 and devid 2 are used (i.e. which raid level)? Is there a btrfs command to get the total capacity of my filesystem? (In my case, it should report total 8 GB, of which 2.03 GB have already been claimed for data + metadata, another 5.97 GB are free. It might also say 6,97 GB for data are still available.)
