Hello,
I have a large file system that has been growing. We've resized it a
couple of times with the following approach:
lvextend -L +800G /dev/raid/virtual_machines
btrfs filesystem resize +800G /vms
I think the FS started out at 200G, we increased it by 200GB a time or
two, then by 800GB and everything worked fine.
The filesystem hosts a number of virtual machines so the file system is
in use, although the VMs individually tend not to be overly active.
VMs tend to be in subvolumes, and some of those subvolumes have snapshots.
This time, I increased it by another 800GB, and it it has hung for many
hours (over night) with flush-btrfs-4 near 100% cpu all that time.
I'm not clear at this point that it will finish or where to go from here.
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
-john (newbie to BTRFS)
