  1. CW: langer text, pc umbau

    so, der umbau mit den neuen HDDs ist fast abgeschlossen

    ich hab jetzt 4 tage damit verschwendet herausezufinden weshalb #jellyfin nach dem kopieren aller medien von #ntfs nach #btrfs meine ganze library komplett neu einliest und alles dupliziert

    #windows nutzt nur ctime, was allerdings der timestamp für metadata change ist, als creation time - in #linux ist es btime

    und obwohl btrfs per virtiofs in der windows vm eingebunden ist und dort im explorer nur die ctime anzeigt, nimmt jellyfin trotzdem die btime

    ja, ich weiss, ich hab ein xtrem weirdes setup - aber deshalb bin ich ja gerade am umbauen
    aber halt step-by-step und nicht alles hauruck

    I don't know of anything that will do this on top of an existing EXT4 or NTFS filesystem, but BTRFS and ZFS are filesystems that do checksums and can detect bit rot. I recommend ZFS, because it has a robust software RAID system that can combine drives of different sizes into a frankenRAID. It also supports hot spares, which are unused drives that can be automatically swapped into your array in case of a drive failure. Those are slightly more niche features. The thing you'll want for everyday use are regularly scheduled "scrubs" where ZFS validates the checksums on all your data. If you have a RAID setup with redundant drives (basically anything except plain RAID 0), it will automatically restore the data from the backup as long as the backup passes checksum validation.

    Unfortunately due to licensing issues it's out of the main kernel tree, so you have to install it via DKMS and use an LTS kernel. It's super worth it imo, and I use it for my media server.

  7. Btrfs и btrbk: лёгкий и быстрый инкрементальный бэкап сервера и домашнего ПК

    Старая сисадминская пословица гласит: люди делятся на две категории — на тех, кто уже делает резервные копии, и тех, кто только будет их делать. Связка Btrfs + btrbk — это революция в мире бэкапа. Ещё никогда не было так просто и быстро создавать дифференциальные резервные копии. Никаких лицензий, подписок — всё полностью бесплатно и встроено в ядро Linux.

  11. Hi fediverse, I'm asking you to do my homework 👀
    Jokes aside, I am supposed to analyze the performance of filesystems for an assignment, and since I'm a #Linux enthousiast, I've decided to checkout out #ext4 and #btrfs since they are both quite popular.

    I am posting my results here because I simply don't understand what explains the significant 15-20Mib throughput writing-speed gap between the two file systems. Initially I thought of compression, but it's disabled. Any clues ?

  13. @Seize

    As far as #btrfs goes, I dunno, I just feel like it's hesitant at times, even when doing really basic things like just writing a tiny little text file.

    And I'm not even using any fancy features like deduplication (snapper has made some snapshots, though).

    It's good to be back, even if I'm rusty in Solaris-based environments.

  28. Great news y'all !!!

    Work on the TUI has concluded. We have added better support for with snapper n and Grub-BTRFS pre-configured out the box.

    We have also added option to install with the Shell slightly pre-configured for a good starting point.

    It doesn't in #btrfs

  38. Well, this is a new one for me - I'm not very familiar with #btrfs; but I wouldn't have expected running out of disk space to be unrecoverable - especially in single-user mode without booting alternative media. rm just hangs.

    I've worked with a dozen #UNIX flavors over the last 32 years. This is special.

  43. Hey y'all !

    Today I resume work on the TUI install script. Some awesome changes coming your way.

    1st off, reworked the implementation adding Snapper and grub-btrfs support for snapshot management.

    2nd take a close look at the attached screenshot. Working hard on that as we speak.

    Enjoy ! ETA June.
