Incidentally, there is some strange behavior here when looking for multiple filesystems which match. Make 2 filesystems w/ the same label: [root@bp-05 tmp]# btrfs filesystem label /dev/sdc1 testlabel2 [root@bp-05 tmp]# btrfs filesystem label /dev/sdc5 testlabel2 Show matching filesytems: [root@bp-05 tmp]# btrfs filesystem show testlabel2 Label: 'testlabel2' uuid: 8c6ec835-5628-439b-9749-d92f62573ce8 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 112.00KiB devid 1 size 30.00GiB used 2.04GiB path /dev/sdc5 Label: 'testlabel2' uuid: a43cd507-02a2-46d2-a754-322cb7bdc346 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 384.00KiB devid 1 size 30.00GiB used 2.04GiB path /dev/sdc1 Btrfs v3.14.2 That works fine, but if one is mounted: [root@bp-05 tmp]# mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/test only the mounted filesystem is shown: [root@bp-05 tmp]# btrfs filesystem show testlabel2 Label: 'testlabel2' uuid: a43cd507-02a2-46d2-a754-322cb7bdc346 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 384.00KiB devid 1 size 30.00GiB used 2.04GiB path /dev/sdc1 Btrfs v3.14.2 That's unexpected. Mount the other fs, and both are shown again: [root@bp-05 tmp]# mount /dev/sdc5 /mnt/scratch [root@bp-05 tmp]# btrfs filesystem show testlabel2 Label: 'testlabel2' uuid: a43cd507-02a2-46d2-a754-322cb7bdc346 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 384.00KiB devid 1 size 30.00GiB used 2.04GiB path /dev/sdc1 Label: 'testlabel2' uuid: 8c6ec835-5628-439b-9749-d92f62573ce8 Total devices 1 FS bytes used 384.00KiB devid 1 size 30.00GiB used 2.04GiB path /dev/sdc5 Btrfs v3.14.2 -Eric -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
