btrfs check won't repair inode errors

2014-11-03 Thread KC
I noticed my data partition had some inode inconsistencies, so I run btrfs check --repair. However, it did nothing and errors are still there: [root@sandiskFit juha]# btrfs check --repair /dev/mapper/HDD--total-data enabling repair mode Fixed 0 roots. Checking filesystem on /dev/mapper/HDD--tot

btrfs check shows errors - What now?

2014-11-01 Thread KC
Hi. I have a disk corruption problem. I run btrfs check on my system and data partitions, and I got worrying results: http://pastebin.com/hpi57xy6 What should I do now? Can I run btrfs check -repair on it, or does it bear risk of shredding my data? What other options do I have except of cop

Massive BTRFS performance degradation

2014-03-08 Thread KC
I am experiencing massive performance degradation on my BTRFS root partition on SSD. Except for regular daily updates, nothing changed in the system. The mount point remained the same: / btrfs rw,noatime,compress=lzo,ssd,space_cache,autodefrag 0 0 but the performance dropped to less than 8% o

Problems on previously perfect setup

Recently (a week or so back) I started having those problems on my BTRFS system - I. My setup: - SSD /boot ext2defaults0 2 / btrfs rw,noatime,compress=lzo,ssd,space_cache,autodefrag 0 0 (there is a /home subvolume mounted automatically) HDD

Booting with syslinux not possible

2014-01-31 Thread KC
I do not know if people her are aware of it, but just in case I thought it is worth mentioning that currently it is not possible to boot with Syslinux bootloader, if the boot partition is on BTRFS. Perhaps it's worth adding to the wiki. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscr

Deleting subvolumes - there be dragons

2014-01-29 Thread KC
I just read this article here: https://lwn.net/Articles/579009/ which states: - btrfs subvolume delete path For ordinary subvolumes (as opposed to snapshots, described below), the subvolume indicated by path must be empty before it can be deleted. ---

Snapshots – noob questions

2014-01-27 Thread KC
I have been trying to understand how snapshots work (in BRTFS and in general), but I still have some questions, and would appreciate if someone could clear them for me. To make things easier, I tried to make most of them Yes/No questions: 1. When creating the filesystem, I only made btrfs parti

Options for SSD - autodefrag etc?

2014-01-23 Thread KC
I was wondering about whether using options like "autodefrag" and "inode_cache" on SSDs. On one hand, one always hears that defragmentation of SSD is a no-no, does that apply to BTRFS's autodefrag? Also, just recently, I heard something similar about "inode_cache". On the other hand, Arch BTR
