#askfedi To my fellow nerds out there, is #btrfs not properly compatible with #fscrypt on #Fedora 42 using #systemd-homed yet or did I just fuck something up? Luks works well and is more secure because it encrypts metadata but I really wanted to try dynamic encrypted home directories.

Ich lese btrfs immer als Butterfass.

BTRFS Subvolumes On Debian Trixie - Easiest Tutorial

Excited for Btrfs RAID1's "preferred read device" feature in Linux 6.14. This allows to have one fast device, example SSD backed bcache device and other slow cheap hard drive. We can set the bcache deice as preferred read device so reads are always fast.
It also wears down only one disk reducing the chance of both the disks evenly wearing out which increases the chances of both of them failing around the same time.

From the pull request:

> more read IO balancing strategies (experimental config), add two new
ways how to select a device for read if the profiles allow that (all RAID1*),
the current default selects the device by pid which is good on average
but less performant for single reader workloads
- select preferred device for all reads (namely for testing)
- round-robin, balance reads across devices relevant for the requested IO
range

I have a #btrfs filesystem of Theseus. Created on Debian Jessie (2015, 3.x kernel) with a 1TB + 2TB set of disks. This same filesystem has come with me as I’ve swapped hardware and distros several times. None of the original disks remain but I’ve enjoyed how this filesystem makes the best use of space in spite of the disks always having been mismatched. I’ve replaced drives one at a time using whatever capacity is cheapest per TB at the moment. It’s currently running on 3x8TB + 1x16TB.

Got a problem with upgrading and timeshift-autosnap on Manjaro with btrfs.
After getting "failed to run transaction hooks" every time, I could get it to work with

$ sudo timeshift-autosnap

and selected a new (the old) backup drive.
No clue why it lost the previous settings.
After that I could upgrade my system again.

I should have gone with ext4 instead of #btrfs I'll guess.

Anaconda on the Fedora Server install ISO doesn’t offer btrfs. Confusing.. Do I need to use the Workstation ISO to get btrfs in Anaconda..?
( And yes, I do want Anaconda in this instance. )
#Fedora #Anaconda #btrfs
Abandoné mi estrategia de respaldos con #Timeshift Btrfs+Rsync y opté por #Btrbk que crea instantáneas #Btrfs locales y realiza respaldos externos incrementales. Además, permite manejar diferentes subvolumenes al mismo tiempo a distinta frecuencia. Por ejemplo, puedo programar instantáneas globales del sistema de forma diaria, y al mismo tiempo, varios respaldos por hora de un directorio de trabajo, una base de datos, en particular. No tiene interfaz gráfica, pero su potencia es increíble 🤩
