Re: Suggestion to improve documentation of Changes/BtrfsTransparentCompression

Hello there, So, let's see if I got it right: if i put in / as a path, it should compress the entire harddrive right? If not, how should I go about doing that? I don't think it would be a good idea to compress the /boot directory, cause the docs don't recommend it, but how would I go about

mdadm -> BTRFS conversion

2021-03-31 Thread Patrick O'Callaghan
I currently have a pair of external drives configured as ext4 with RAID1 using mdadm, and mainly used for backup. My / and /home filesystems are now BTRFS so I'm looking at converting the external drives to BTRFS with RAID1. My main reason is to take advantage of BTRFS checksumming as a guard again

Nothing to add but the usual caveats: https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Timeout_Mismatch I use udev for that instead of init scripts. Concept is the same though, you want SCT ERC time to be shorter than kernel's command timer. The btrfsmaintenance package has a scrub.timer that you can confi

Desktop crash during a `dnf upgrade`, will this be a problem now?

Hi! folks, Just now during a routine update using `dnf update` my desktop process gnome-shell crashed. Afterwards, I checked dnf history and /var/log/dnf.log to see if any inconsistency is present. dnf.log didn't report the last transaction as completed, but `dnf history info last` report the act
