JorgeB Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 This pool has both raid0 and raid1 chunks, I assume you want raid0 since most are, if yes type in the console: btrfs balance start -dconvert=raid0,soft /mnt/cache_download_one Quote Link to comment
KTFirst Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 Actually would like RAID 1 (mirroring) Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Your system share has files on the array Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 1 hour ago, KTFirst said: Actually would like RAID 1 (mirroring) Then just use the GUI balance option, since 99% of the chunks are raid0 not much point in using the soft flag. Quote Link to comment
KTFirst Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 Guys, I am not sure what that means. Please advise. BR T Quote Link to comment
Solution JorgeB Posted December 17, 2022 Solution Share Posted December 17, 2022 Click on the pool, scroll down to the "balance status" section, choose "convert to raid1 mode" and click balance. Quote Link to comment
KTFirst Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 So I did that. Seemed to work (to be honest I do not know other than I have not got any errors). But, I did a "balance" on my plex cache and then got an error. REALLY sorry for being such a nube guys... Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Those are problems with the drive itself. Those numbers have increased since your earlier diagnostics. I would replace. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Not a good sign but you can also run an extended SMART test to see if the device is still OK for now. Quote Link to comment
KTFirst Posted December 22, 2022 Author Share Posted December 22, 2022 Hi. So tried that (extended SMART) and get read error. Will replace. THANK you all for all the help! 1 Quote Link to comment
