Subject: problem after using btrfs-convert

Hi.  I had a problem after using btrfs-convert.  The file system would
notmount, it said could not create uuid tree and the reason was no space
left on device.  I tried mounting with some options, like
nospace_cache,nodatacow, but those did not work.  I  could not extend
the file system since it was not mounted, although there should be a way
to do thisk, so I rolled back, and extended  under ext4 which does allow
extending an offline file system and tried again, successfully.  

But I wonder is there a better way to solve this and why can't you
extend an offline system?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
