Are you snapshotting near the time of enospc? If so it's a known problem that's been around for a while. There are some suggestions in the archives but I think the main thing is to back off on the workload momentarily, take the snapshot, and then resume the workload. I don't think it has to come to a complete stop but it's a lot more reproducible with heavy writes. -- Chris Murphy -- 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
