I am just getting started with btrfs and wanted to test raid5. I set
it up and thought it was setup correctly but when I run " btrfs fi
usage /mnt/btrdata" I get the message "WARNING: RAID56 detected, not
implemented". Does this mean I have no redundancy? I know it is
experimental and I am not relying on it for production data (or data
that cannot be replaced). I don't think I do. When I check the free
space (3.7TB) it is the same as all the drive together (4x931MB).
Any assistance in helping me understand would be appreciated greatly.
