I believe there are commands to add and remove disks from the btrfs during run-time.
Examples or references please.
btrfs filesystem resize [devid:][+/-]<newsize>[kKmMgGtTpPeE]|[devid:]max <path> Resize a filesystem
btrfs device add [options] <device> [<device>...] <path> Add a device to a filesystem btrfs device delete <device> [<device>...] <path> Remove a device from a filesystem
Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. It wasn't the specific commands I was asking about, it was the "during run-time" I was questioning.
If course, if I boot from the CD in maintenance mode I can do all that, since the disk if really off line, but if by "run time" you mean the live system, while the file system is in use (as I do with ReiserFS), no I haven't done that
What I'm asking about is not the commands themselves but a reference to "during run time" in the sense of a live FS in use.
I believe this is during run-time. I am by no means an expert on this matter. I am in the process of thinking of moving to btrfs system. Have you look at this site? https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page One of the most important feature of btrfs is the vacuum system where you can check the state of the file system while it is running, that is check if the data is intact or to check for bit rot on the file system. -- Joseph Loo jloo@acm.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
