RE: [ToDo] Wiki Updates
Quote:somewhat as if you setup your traditional linux with seperate partitions for '/' and '/home' (or '/boot', or '/var')That's just what it is. The only difference is the definition of a subvolume. Traditionally a subvolume is a partition. I believe that BTRFS is like ZFS which interprets a subvolume (or zvol) as a volume on top of a storage device. That can be a file, harddrive, flash drive, network drive, or a raid combination with any of them. So in ZFS you can create a RAID array with files just as you can with harddrives. If doesn't matter much to the BTRFS or ZFS filesystem on top of it. The biggest difference between BTRFS and ZFS with traditional filesystems is that they both combine a hardware layer with a filesystem layer. The hardware layer manages the actual subvolumes, raid levels etc. The filesystem on top of it adds features as cloning, snapshotting etc. So ZFS and BTRFS are not just filesystems, but a lot more. So, if want to have the same with say EXT4 you need to combine it with either a hardware raid controller or with MDADM. pilight - modular domotica solution
