Hi all,

I did a successful btrfs restore a few months ago, saving all of my deleted files except 2 (So i lost about 1GB on a 4TB filesystem) Here is what i did (this is from memory and from my .zsh_history file, so i may be missing something)

btrfs-find-root  /dev/sdd -o 5 > b1.txt
I think the -o 5 option is quite important here.
After that, i ran this

for i in `awk '{print $3}' b1.txt`; do echo "------------------------ $i --------------------" && btrfs restore /dev/sdd /storage/A3/ -Dv -f $i ; done

I think i did that in order to brute force a correct offset

I also have done this, in order to find the offset that gave the largest number of files for i in `awk '{print $3}' b1.txt`; do echo "------------------------ $i --------------------" && btrfs restore /dev/sdd /storage/A3/ -Dv -f $i |wc -l ; done


Then i did some test restores using various addresses
btrfs restore /dev/sdd /storage/A3/B1/  -vD -f 2149617336320
btrfs restore /dev/sdd /storage/A3/B1/  -vD -f 1607682736128
btrfs restore /dev/sdd /storage/A3/B1/  -vD -f 2688721551360

and then i finally did the restore using the offset that looked best

btrfs restore /dev/sdd /storage/A3/B1/  -v -f 2688721551360

I hope this helps, good luck!


Here is what the command returns :

[root@x220 ~]# btrfs-find-root /dev/mapper/home
Super think's the tree root is at 115230801920, chunk root 131072
Went past the fs size, exiting[root@x220 ~]#

I just tried with latest btrfs-progs (from git), it returns exactly the
same.

The btrfs partition is on top of dm-crypt, could it be a problem?


Thanks,
Jean-Denis Girard
