btrfs filesystem
Manage btrfs filesystems. More information: https://btrfs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/btrfs-filesystem.html.
- Show filesystem usage (optionally run as root to show detailed information):
btrfs filesystem usage {{path/to/btrfs_mount}}
- Show usage by individual devices:
sudo btrfs filesystem show {{path/to/btrfs_mount}}
- Defragment a single file on a btrfs filesystem (avoid while a deduplication agent is running):
sudo btrfs filesystem defragment -v {{path/to/file}}
- Defragment a directory recursively (does not cross subvolume boundaries):
sudo btrfs filesystem defragment -v -r {{path/to/directory}}
- Force syncing unwritten data blocks to disk(s):
sudo btrfs filesystem sync {{path/to/btrfs_mount}}
- Summarize disk usage for the files in a directory recursively:
sudo btrfs filesystem du --summarize {{path/to/directory}}
