Hello,

I intend to move this subvolume to a new device.
btrfs fi show /mnt2/Data_Store/
Label: 'Data_Store'  uuid: 0ccc1e24-090d-42e2-9e61-d0a1b3101f93

(fi usage at the bottom of this message)

The new device (sda4) is 8G smaller unfortunately.
sda       8:0    0 111.8G  0 disk
└─sda4    8:4    0 103.5G  0 part
sdb       8:16   0 119.2G  0 disk
└─sdb4    8:20   0   111G  0 part  /mnt2/Data_Store

Thus, btrfs replace does not work

What would you suggest now to move the FS (it does contain many subvolumes)?

I tried btrfs send /mnt2/Data_Store/read_only_snapshot/ | btrfs receive 
/mnt/sda4/
but this only created an empty subvolume /mnt/sda4/read_only_snapshot/

I suspect that you captured snapshot as

  ==========================
  btrfs sub snap -r /mnt2/Data_Store /mnt2/Data_Store/read_only_snapshot
  ==========================

and /mnt2/Data_Store only contains subvolumes
instead of having files/directries directly.
Then send/receive work as you said. Probably if you run
"ls -li /mnt2/Data_Store", all files have
inode 256 (it means subvolume). In addition,
all the directories under
/mnt2/Data_Store/read_only_snapshot are empty.

It's because "sub snap" only handles one subvolume
and doesn't handle subvolumes inside it. So, if you'd
like to copy all the data by send/receive, you should
capture and send/receive snapshot for each subvolume.


So, then
btrfs device add /dev/sda4 /mnt/Data_Store
btrfs balance start /mnt/Data_Store
btrfs device remove /dev/sdb4 /mnt/Data_Store
?

balance is not necessary. When you run
device remove /dev/sdb4, then all the contents of
/dev/sdb4 migrate to /dev/sda4 properly.

Thanks,
Satoru


Or is there a better option?
