Balance conversion to metadata RAID1, data RAID1 leaves some metadata as DUP

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

 



I recently recovered created a fresh filesystem on one disk and
recovered from backups with data as SINGLE and metadata as DUP.  I added
a second disk yesterday and ran a balance with -dconvert=raid1
-mconvert=raid1.  I did reboot during the process for a couple of
reasons, putting the sides on the PC case, putting it back under the
desk and I updated the kernel from 5.3.9 to 5.2.13 at some point during
this process. Balance resumed as one would expect.  Balance has now
completed:

root@phoenix:~# btrfs balance status /home_data
No balance found on '/home_data'

However, some metadata remains as DUP which does not seem right:

root@phoenix:~# btrfs fi usage  /home_data/
Overall:

root@phoenix:~# btrfs --version
btrfs-progs v5.1


I presume running another balance will fix this, but surely all metadata
should have been converted?  Is there a way to only balance the DUP
metadata?
