Subject: How to cancel btrfs balance on unmounted filesystem
Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2016 08:21:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160331062112.GT9342@torres.zugschlus.de> (raw)
Hi,
one of my problem btrfs instances went into a hung process state
while blancing metadata. This process is recorded in the file system
somehow and the balance restarts immediately after mounting the
filesystem with no chance to issue a btrfs balance cancel command
before the system hangs again.
Is there any possiblity to cancel the pending balance without mounting
the fs first?
I have also filed https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115581
to adress this in a more elegant way.
Greetings
Marc
