How do I safely terminate COW on pre-existing files?
...or empty files. If
it is set on a file which already has data blocks, it is undefined when
the blocks assigned to the file will be fully stable. If the ''C''
flag is set on a directory, it will have no effect on the directory,
but new files created in that directory will the No_COW attribute.)
So what exactly does that mean? Does it mean that it is unsafe? Or
does it mean that it is simply unreliable? If I run a btrfs balance
first will that clear out the COW snapshots and enable me to perform the
recursive chattrs? What is the best way to approach this?
Thanks for a...
