Re: ERROR: error removing the device '/dev/sdXN' - Inappropriate ioctl for device

 Looks like an option to use devid to delete a device would
 have mitigated the issue.  Also the error reported is no
 where near the reality. Will fix them.

 Thanks for reporting.

  very strange. 'btrfs fi show -m' shows btrfs fs(s) that are mounted.

Looks like my /dev/sdf isn't responding with anything useful at all... A
firmware crash?... (This is for a 256GB SSD.)


# btrfs fi show -m

And btrfs is still running ok so far... I'll be swapping that device at
the weekend. (First chance I have for a Sunday shutdown. :-( )


Still... For administering btrfs, it is a little disturbing not to be
able to remove/delete a device unless that device is both mounted and
working...

Or is that where the "missing" option comes in?



Comments welcomed,

Thanks,
Martin
