Subject: Building a RAID post-mkfs?
Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2009 13:54:10 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3skdjusvx.fsf@pullcord.laptop.org> (raw)

Hi,

I installed btrfs to one disk using the Fedora 12 installer; it
doesn't allow any configuration of the mkfs command by the user,
so it wasn't possible to mkfs with more than one disk.

I'd like to add a second disk, with either RAID0 or RAID1 between
the two -- the equivalent of "mkfs.btrfs -m raid0/1 -d raid0/1
/dev/sda /dev/sdb".  Is it possible to create this non-destructively
now?  If not, should it be?  What would the implementation look like?

Thanks,

- Chris.
