Subject: Status of raid5/6 in 2014?
Date: Fri, 3 Jan 2014 11:45:38 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAAVQaYAx8yxtvM1Mg759FJpEx6rjHQo3_2F84LNMA_f0kP81Sg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Back in Feb 2013 there was quite a bit of press about the preliminary
raid5/6 implementation in Btrfs.  At the time it wasn't useful for
anything other then testing and it's my understanding that this is
still the case.

I've seen a few git commits and some chatter on this list but it would
appear the developers are largely silent.  Parity based raid would be
a powerful addition the the Btrfs feature stack and it's the feature I
most anxiously await.  Are there any milestones planned for 2014?

Keep up the good work...
