Ah thanks David. So its 2 disks RAID1.

Martin,

 disk pool error handle is primitive as of now. readonly is the only
 action it would take. rest of recovery action is manual. thats
 unacceptable in a data center solutions. I don't recommend btrfs VM
 productions yet. But we are working to get that to a complete VM.

 For now, for your pool recovery: pls try this.

    - After reboot.
    - modunload and modload (so that kernel devlist is empty)
    - mount -o degraded <good-disk> <-- this should work.
    - btrfs fi show -m <-- Should show missing if you don't let me know.
    - Do a replace of the missing disk without reading the source disk.

Good luck.

Thanks, Anand

Hello!

I have a raid1-btrfs-system (Kernel 3.19.0-18-generic, Ubuntu Vivid
Vervet, btrfs-tools 3.17-1.1). One disk failed some days ago. I could
remount the remaining one with "-o degraded". After one day and some
write-operations (with no errrors) I had to reboot the system. And now
I can not mount "rw" anymore, only "-o degraded,ro" is possible.

In the kernel log I found BTRFS: too many missing devices, writeable
mount is not allowed.

I read about https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60594 but I
did no conversion to a single drive.

How can I mount the disk "rw" to remove the "missing" drive and add a
new one?
Because there are many snapshots of the filesystem, copying the system
would be only the last alternative ;-)

How many disks you had in the RAID1. How many are failed ?

The answer is (a bit indirectly) in what you quoted.  Repeating:

One disk failed[.] I could remount the remaining one[.]

So it was a two-device raid1, one failed device, one remaining, unfailed.
