Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Sender: linux-btrfs-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: I am new at this btrfs stuff! As I understand it, you can add a physical disk or partition and have data spread into the new space. You can also move data off a disk or partition and then remove it. Has any though been given to being able merge to existing (separate) btrfs "volumes" into a single volume? Alternatively, how about at tool for transfering a subvolume from one pool to another? I tried using fsarchiver but that did not work out too well. Gene
