Hi What is the general state of btrfs RAID6 as of kernel 3.13-rc1 and the latest btrfs tools? More specifically: - Is it able to correct errors during scrubs? - Is it able to transparently handle disk failures without downtime? - Is it possible to convert btrfs RAID10 to RAID6 without recreating the fs? - Is it possible to add/remove drives to a RAID6 array? Regards, Hans-Kristian -- To

Hi list, I am using kernel 3.9.0, btrfs-progs 0.20-rc1-253-g7854c8b. I have a three disk array of level single: # btrfs fi sh Label: none uuid: 2e905f8f-e525-4114-afa6-cce48f77b629 Total devices 3 FS bytes used 3.80TB devid 1 size 2.73TB used 2.25TB path /dev/sdd devid 2 size 2.73TB used 1.55TB path /dev/sdc devid 3 size 2.73TB used 0.00 path /dev/sdb

Hi, I''ve observed a rather strange behaviour while trying to mount two identical copies of the same image to different mount points. Each modification to one image is also performed in the second one. Example: dd if=/dev/sda? of=image1 bs=1M cp image1 image2 mount -o loop image1 m1 mount -o loop image2 m2 touch m2/hello ls -la m1 //will now also include a file calles "hello"

i am looking at using btrfs for a new project and i have a few questions:     * i have heard that as it currently stands Btrfs has some issues to be used as a Lustre file system; is he aware of the issues and any plans to address these and integrate Btrfs in to Lustre     * any plans to support native clustering on Btrfs     * on ZFS the ZIL is a separate device, any plans to implement a the

Hello guys, i try to convert ext4 volume, but btrfs-convert show me error: "No valid Btrfs found on file unable to open ctree conversion aborted."

Hello list, i know what btrfs don''t support swap files. I read arch wiki and when i reading about systemd addon for auto create swapfile on btrfs, i invent the way, how create and using swap file, just see following sh code: swapfile=$(losetup -f) #free loop device truncate -s 8G /swap #create 8G sparse swap file losetup $swapfile /swap #mount file to loop mkswap $swapfile swapon

Hey all, Just did a btrfs balance on a single device. Before the balance operation here is the df result: inglor@tiamat ~$ btrfs fi df /home Data: total=19.19GB, used=9.34GB System, DUP: total=32.00MB, used=4.00KB Metadata, DUP: total=896.00MB, used=227.98MB Then I issues a balance operation relocating the chunks across a single device: inglor@tiamat ~$ sudo btrfs fi balance /home [sudo]

I''m trying to compile the btrfs source code but I''m getting an error. Any suggestions?

How can I verify the read speed of a btrfs raid0 pair in archlinux.? I assume raid0 means striped activity in a paralleled mode at lease similar to raid0 in mdadm. How can I measure the btrfs read speed since it is copy-on-write which is not the norm in mdadm raid0.? Perhaps I cannot use the same approach in btrfs to determine the performance. Secondly, I see a methodology for raid10 using

Hi, how can I do the following in a shell script: - check whether my file system supports cp --reflink? - check whether two files share the same data on disk, i.e. one has been created by cp --reflink of the other?

Dear Devs, I have x4 4TB HDDs formatted with: mkfs.btrfs -L bu-16TB_0 -d raid1 -m raid1 /dev/sd[cdef] /etc/fstab mounts with the options: noatime,noauto,space_cache,inode_cache All on kernel 3.8.13. Upon using rsync to copy some heavily hardlinked backups from ReiserFS, I''ve seen: The following "block rsv returned -28" is repeated 7 times until there is a call trace

Hi. I am seriously considering employing btrfs on my systems, particularly due to some space-saving features that it has (namely, deduplication and compression). In fact, I was (a few moments ago) trying to back up some of my systems to a 2TB HD that has an ext4 filesystem and, in the middle of the last one, I got the error message that the backup HD was full. Given that what I backup there are

Hi, I have added 2x2Tb to my existing 2x2Tb raid 1 btrfs filesystem and then ran a balance: # btrfs filesystem show Total devices 4 FS bytes used 1.74TB devid 3 size 1.82TB used 0.00 path /dev/sdd devid 4 size 1.82TB used 0.00 path /dev/sde devid 2 size 1.82TB used 1.75TB path /dev/sdc devid 1 size 1.82TB used 1.75TB path /dev/sdb # btrfs

Hi list! I recently butchered my filesystem, and I was wondering if anyone knows how to help. Problem: My filesystem is screwed up, and I can''t mount it at all right now. In the logs, the problem begins around 45s. Background: I''m running a 6x4TB RAID5 array using md. I have a few virtual machines using said array, and one of them is a btrfs storage server. I ran into some

Hello If I want to manage a complete disk with btrfs, what''s the "Best Practice"? Would it be best to create the btrfs filesystem on "/dev/sdb", or would it be better to create just one partition from start to end and then do "mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdb1"? Would the same recomendation hold true, if we''re talking about huge disks, like 4TB or so?

Hello, We are using btrfs filesystems in our infrastructure and, at some point of time, they start refusing to create new subvolumes. Each file system is being quota initialized immediately after its creation (with "btrfs quota enable") and then all subfolders under the root directory are created as subvolumes (btrfs subvolume create). Over time, these subvolumes may also be

Hi, After reading through the btrfs documentation I''m curious to know if it''s possible to ever securely erase a file from a btrfs filesystem (or ZFS for that matter). On non-COW filesystems atop regular HDDs one can simply overwrite the file with zeros or random data using dd or some other tool and rest assured that the blocks which contained the sensitive information have

Hello On my HP Compaq dc5800 with Ubuntu 13.04 and their 3.8.0-19-lowlatency kernel, I''ve got quite some kernel traces in the syslog.
