Subject: btrfs defrag questions
Date: Fri, 1 Jul 2016 22:14:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5776CF08.5040601@mail.ru> (raw)

Hello everyone,

Question #1:

While doing defrag I got the following message:

# btrfs fi defrag -r /home
ERROR: defrag failed on /home/user/.dropbox-dist/dropbox: Success
total 1 failures

I feel that something went wrong, but the message is a bit misleading.

Provided that Dropbox is running in the system, does it mean that it
cannot be defagmented?

Question #2:

Suppose that in above example /home/ftp is mounted as another btrfs
array (not subvolume). Will 'btrfs fi defrag -r /home' defragment it
(recursively) as well?

-- 
With best regards,
Dmitry
