Hi all, |
| 2 |
I need to expand two bcache fronted 4xdisk btrfs raid 10's - this |
| 3 |
requires purchasing 4 drives (and one system does not have room for two |
| 4 |
more drives) so I am trying to see if using raid 5 is an option |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I have been trying to find if btrfs raid 5/6 is stable enough to use but |
| 7 |
while there is mention of improvements in kernel 4.12, and fixes for the |
| 8 |
write hole problem I cant see any reports that its "working fine now" |
| 9 |
though there is a phoronix article saying Oracle is using it since the |
| 10 |
fixes. |

Is anyone here successfully using btrfs raid 5/6? What is the status of |
| 13 |
scrub and self healing? The btrfs wiki is woefully out of date :( |
