Large multi-device BTRFS array (usually) fails to mount on boot.

2021-02-03 Thread joshua
Good Evening. I have a large BTRFS array, (14 Drives, ~100 TB RAW) which has been having problems mounting on boot without timing out. This causes the system to drop to emergency mode. I am then able to mount the array in emergency mode and all data appears fine, but upon reboot it fails again.

I generally use this command to check my drive usage: `btrfs fi usage -T /mnt/data` But this time it didn't give me useful information: I decided to begin replacing a few of my drives with larger drives, so I could remove a lot of my smaller drives. I ran this command: Overall: Device size: 67.3

never guaranteed forward compatibility. So it is not yet supported to mount the fs with an older kernel once it was mounted with a newer one. Especially when using features that are under heavy development right now. Also try to keep your kernel up to date (3.13 is out since a few days) Joshua
