We need a decently-available system. We can rollback filesystem to
last-known-good if the "test" detects an inconsistency on current btrfs
filesystem, but we need a very good test for that (i.e. if
last-known-good is actually bad we get into serious troubles).
So do you think btrfsck can return a false "OK" result? can it "not-see"
an inconsistency?
Thank you
