Hi,
Although I'm not completely sure, but it seems that, you really ran out
of space.
[1] Your array won't hold raid1 for 1.97T data
Your array used up 1.97T raid0 data, it takes 1.97T for raid0.
But if converted to 1.97T, it will occupy 1.97T X2 = 3.94T.
Your array are only 2.73T, it is too small to contain the data.
[2]No unallocated free space
When doing convert, btrfs will *NOT* convert the data/metadata in-place,
it allocate chunk and move data,
which means, if btrfs wants to convert it needs to allocate some raid1
data chunk for the convert,
and then copy the raid0 data to raid1 data chunk.
However, your 'btrfs fi show' output shows that there is no unallocated
free space for raid1 data chunk allocation.
(2.75T space all used up for chunk allocation).
Although your 'btrfs fi df' shows there is still about 800G free space,
that's just free space inside data/medata chunk,
and chunk allocation needs completely free space, which is not allocated
for any chunk type.
If you really want to free some space from the unused space, you can try
balance with -d/-m options,
but it won't really do much help on your case due to [1].
[Conculsion]
So the ENOSPC error is not a false alert.
Add more devices (easiest but expensive) or free up some space and then
use balance with -d/-m
to free up some free space(balance speed maybe slow) seems to be the
only 2 ways to finish your RAID1
setup.
Thanks,
Qu

Hello,
I'm trying to change my 4 disk btrfs data from raid0 to raid1. The metadata is
allready in raid1 and now I'm trying to also make the data raid1.
I'm getting the following errors and I got told on irc to go report this as a
bug.
Hoping there is anybody that can give me a hand here in solving it.
-------------------------------
Command I issued was:
btrfs balance start -dconvert=raid1,soft /data
-------------------------------
-------------------------------
Error I got:
ERROR: error during balancing '/data' - No space left on device
There may be more info in syslog - try dmesg | tail
