BTRFS filesystem

reflinks
- cp --reflink name1 name4
- reflinks are supported by BTRFS and OCFS2 and support transparent copy on write which is especially useful for snapshotting.
- Note that since separate inodes are used, one can have different permissions to access the same data.
- Reflinks have the same use as hardlinks, but are more space efficient and generally handle all subsequent operations on a file, not just unlink().
If you have virtual images on a btrfs, cow(copy on write) will cause a lot of fragmentation, turn it of for the directory of file with
- this disables cow(fragmentation) and also crc calculations on the files.
  - ```
       chatter +C /path
```

defrag with

   btrfs filesystem defragment /path/file

or faster for large files

     cp --reflink=never vbox.vdi vbox.new.vdi ; rm vbox.vdi ;

Create raid array, raid1 all data mirrored once.
- # mkfs.btrfs -m raid1 -d raid1 -L root /dev/disk/by-label/root1 /dev/disk/by-label/root2 /dev/disk/by-lab

el/root3 /dev/disk/by-label/root4
