Perfect!! Just what I was looking for. Sorry for the delay, because before doing so, I preferred to test to see if it actually worked.
I have a doubt. The system works perfectly, but at the time of deleting the
writing disk and merging the data on the read-only disk I fail to understand
the process.
I have tried to remove the seed bit on disk A and delete the write B as you
mention, and so move the data to A, but tells me that disk B does not exist.
These are the orders I have made:
md127-> A
md126-> B
btrfstune -S 0 /dev /md127
mount /dev/md127 /mnt (I mount this disk since the md126 gives error)
btrfs device delete /dev/md126 /mnt
ERROR: error removing device '/dev/md126': No such file or directory
Another thing I've tried is to remove disk B without removing the seed bit,
but it gives me the error:
ERROR: error removing device '/dev/md126': unable to remove the only writeable
device.
Any ideas about it?
Thank you very much for the reply.
Greetings.
