similar to: Mixed RAID 1 and 0 in different subvolumes?

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

I have been experimenting exporting btrfs subvolumes over nfs. Main subvolume is filesys1 mounted at /filesys1. Below this is subvolume base, user1 is in base and documents is in user1. documents is mounted at /documents. /etc/exports is: /filesys1/base/user1 172.16.0.0/24(rw,no_acl,no_root_squash,fsid=0) /filesys1/user1-snapshot 172.16.0.0/24(rw,no_acl,no_root_squash,fsid=0)

I''m wondering is space really freed after deleting large subvolume? Will space be immediately available to other data like other subvolumes? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I was looking through some of the archives and notice a patch submitted to implement: btrfs subvolume show <path-to-subvolume> command. I also noticed that is does not appear to be in the git. This looks like a useful capability. I was trying to find out what the UUID was for a newly created subvolume and have not found out how to do that. Gene -- To unsubscribe from this

I''ve just pushed out a new integration branch to my git repo. This is purely bugfix patches -- there are no new features in this issue of the integration branch. I''ve got a stack of about a dozen more patches with new features in them still to go. I''ll be working on those tomorrow. As always, there''s minimal testing involved here, but it does at least compile on

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

I''m having some trouble working out how to make the SDL interface for HVM domUs appear. The documentation simply says "it will appear" when you start the domU, but doesn''t state what packages or libraries are needed in order for this magic to happen, or explain how to debug it if it doesn''t happen. All that I''m getting at the moment is a domU (running

Hello! Today I downgraded from Ubuntu''s APT repo "oneiric-proposed" (which brings some kernel 3.0.0-13) back to the standard repo "oneiric".

Hi, I wanted to create a new btrfs fs for my backups. When trying to mkfs.btrfs for that device, I''m getting "error checking /dev/loop2 mount status" With strace I see where the problem is: lstat("/dev/disk/by-id/ata-INTEL_SSDSA2M160G2GC_CVPO939201JX160AGN-par", 0x7fffa30b3cf0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) The problem is there is something missing

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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I''ve been unable to find anything definitive about what happens if I use RAID0 to join an SSD and HDD together with respect to performance (latency, throughput). The future is obvious (hot data tracking, using most appropriate device for the data, data migration). In my specific case I have a 250GB SSD and a 500GB HDD, and about 250GB of

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is it ( yet? ) possible to manipulate the allocation policy on a subvolume level instead of the fs level?

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

After a reorganisation of patches, and sending a bunch of them to Chris, I''ve also updated the integration branch to match that. It''s available from: http://git.darksatanic.net/repo/btrfs-progs-unstable.git/ integration-20110630 The shortlog of 17 patches in this branch beyond the ones I''ve sent to Chris is below. Hugo.

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"
