Does anyone know if this is expected or intended to work? Obviously the tools allow you to start it, but for some reason to me it doesn't seem like a good idea. I'd just leave it -o degraded until I get a replacement drive. Deciding to do a conversion on a degraded volume doesn't seem like proper timing. > > Now the damaged disk disappeared completely. No sign of it in /proc/diskstats. I don't know what you mean by it's disappeared complete. Are you talking about the physical block device? Or the dm logical block device? What do you get for: lsblk blkid btrfs device scan --all-devices btrfs fi show > But now, I can't mount bunkerA degraded,RW because degraded > filesystems are not allowed to be mounted RW (?) Have you tried? What errors do you get in user space and dmesg?
