Subject: Resize a btrfs File System : no enough free space... why ?!?
Date: Sat, 1 Oct 2016 10:42:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOf5Se5C+6Y+=uz=Lkv-wrPhHZOMD94hzrtLHwDR3D78UHiSSQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Dears,
I added a news disk to my RAID5 array so I now have 4 * 2Tio disks,
with an +/-6Tio available capacity. On the RAID I have only one LVM
volume to manage all this space :
$ lvdisplay
--- Logical volume ---
LV Path /dev/VG1/Vol3
LV Name Vol3
VG Name VG1
LV UUID dEGmTz-Fj0Z-qbOf-xn67-D5D8-5BNY-EwCsoF
LV Write Access read/write
LV Creation host, time ,
LV Status available
# open 1
LV Size 5,46 TiB
Current LE 1430795
Segments 2
Allocation inherit
Read ahead sectors auto
- currently set to 256
Block device 253:2
After increased the RAID, then the LVM, I resize the BTRFS :
$ btrfs filesystem resize 1:max /mnt/RAID
Now I have 5,5T available:
# df -h /mnt/RAID
Sys. de fichiers Taille Utilisé Dispo Uti% Monté sur
/dev/mapper/VG1-Vol3 5,5T 3,5T 1,9T 66% /mnt/RAID
# btrfs fi show

Metadata, single: total=8.00MiB, used=0.00B
GlobalReserve, single: total=512.00MiB, used=0.00B
Unfortunately, I want to change the RAID chunk size because it is only
4K so I have to update the size of BTRFS before. Now, array size is
5860537608 so I want to reduce to 5860537344k :
$ btrfs filesystem resize 1:5860537344k /mnt/RAID
Resize '/mnt/RAID' of '1:5860537344k'
ERROR: unable to resize '/mnt/RAID': no enough free space
I tried severals tips but without any success:
# btrfs balance start -v -dusage=0 /mnt/RAID
# btrfs balance start -v -dusage=5 /mnt/RAID
# btrfs filesystem defragment /mnt/RAID
Like I don't understand the error, do you know why I can not resize
the BTRFS partition while 2TB are free?
