Hello, I have a 3 1TB drives that I wanted to make a Raid1 system on. I issued the following command "mkfs.btrfs -m raid1 -d raid1 /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd" And it seems to have created the fs, with no issue. When I do an df -h, I see that the available space is 3TB. Seems like with RAID1 I would only see 1TB available, and the other two drives would mirror the first. Am I misunderstanding how the RAID1 works under btrfs? Can you have more than two drives in RAID1 in btrfs, so you can survive multiple drive failures? Is there a better option with only 3 drives? I am not wedded to RAID1 if there is a better way.
Here is my uname -a: Linux gemini 2.6.31-19-generic #56-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 28 01:26:53 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux And I am using btrfs 0.19.
