Kernel 4.11, btrfs-progs v4.7.3
I run scrub and balance every night, been doing this for 1.5 years on this
filesystem.
But it has just started failing:
saruman:~# btrfs balance start -musage=0 /mnt/btrfs_pool1
Done, had to relocate 0 out of 235 chunks
saruman:~# btrfs balance start -dusage=0 /mnt/btrfs_pool1
Done, had to relocate 0 out of 235 chunks
saruman:~# btrfs balance start -musage=1 /mnt/btrfs_pool1
ERROR: error during balancing '/mnt/btrfs_pool1': No space left on device
aruman:~# btrfs balance start -dusage=10 /mnt/btrfs_pool1
Done, had to relocate 0 out of 235 chunks
saruman:~# btrfs balance start -dusage=20 /mnt/btrfs_pool1
ERROR: error during balancing '/mnt/btrfs_pool1': No space left on device
There may be more info in syslog - try dmesg | tail

How did I get into such a misbalanced state when I balance every night?
My filesystem is not full, I can write just fine, but I sure cannot
rebalance now.
Besides adding another device to add space, is there a way around this
and more generally not getting into that state anymore considering that
I already rebalance every night?
Thanks,
Marc
