If the source device is disconnected, +from the system, you have to use the devid parameter format. +The <targetdev> needs to be same size or larger than the <srcdev>. ++ +`Options` ++ +-r:::: +only read from <srcdev> if no other zero-defect mirror exists. +(enable this if your drive has lots of read errors, the access would be very +slow) +-f:::: +force using and overwriting <targetdev> even if it looks like +containing a valid btrfs filesystem. ++ +A valid filesystem is assumed if a btrfs superblock is found which contains a +correct checksum. Devices which are currently mounted are +never allowed to be used as the <targetdev>. +-B:::: +no background replace. + +'status' [-1] <mount_point>:: +Print status and progress information of a running device replace operation. ++ +`Options` ++ +-1:::: +print once instead of print continuously until the replace +operation finishes (or is canceled) + +'cancel' <mount_point>:: +Cancel a running device replace operation. + +EXIT STATUS +----------- +'btrfs replace' returns a zero exist status if it succeeds. Non zero is +returned in case of failure. + +AVAILABILITY +------------ +'btrfs' is part of btrfs-progs. Btrfs filesystem is currently under heavy +development, +and not suitable for any uses other than benchmarking and review. +Please refer to the btrfs wiki http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org for +further details. + +SEE ALSO +-------- +`mkfs.btrfs`(8), -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
