Non-RAID1 areas in RAID1, data 8MB, Metadata 8MB, System 4MB

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The create RAID1 example illustrates my question, at:

https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/UseCases#How_do_I_create_a_RAID1_mirror_in_Btrfs.3F

It shows:

mkfs.btrfs -m raid1 -d raid1 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1

will result in:

btrfs fi df /mount

Data, RAID1: total=1.00GB, used=128.00KB
Data: total=8.00MB, used=0.00
System, RAID1: total=8.00MB, used=4.00KB
System: total=4.00MB, used=0.00
Metadata, RAID1: total=1.00GB, used=24.00KB
Metadata: total=8.00MB, used=0.00


What's the 8MB, System 4MB, and Metadata 8MB areas that appear not to
be redundant?

I'm seeing these small areas on my own RAID1, but using the example
for simplicity.

I'm sure it has to be OK those spaces aren't redundant, but I don't
get what could be there that wouldn't be critical...
