We have a disk array behind two external SATA port multipliers (four
disks on each multiplier) which has been running btrfs (RAID 1 for
both data and metadata). Unfortunately, earlier today it seems one of
the SATA cables came loose, resulting in the kernel (2.6.37)
eventually OOPSing although apparently not before writing quite a bit
of data. Upon reboot, I was met with the dreaded,
disk-io.c:741: open_ctree_fd: Assertion `!(!tree_root->node)' failed.
Unfortunately any attempt to run any of the btrfs-progs utilities
(from git) met a similar end. There was recently a patch to try harder
in recovering from this problem posted to the list[1], although
unfortunately it is unable to find a root. Considering there are eight
disks in the array and only four were affected by the loose cable, I
find it very hard to believe there is no way to recover this volume.
Any suggestions at all would be greatly appreciated. Recovering this
data would mean a lot. Thanks,
- Ben
