A comment on The Btrfs inode-number epic (part 1: the problem).

In our current setup, we only NFS export a btrfs subvolume, with no subvolumes inside that one. So that should be OK, if I'm reading this right.

I'm a big fan of btrfs snapshots, but with some other recent issues, I'm wondering if we should migrate away from btrfs.

I've run a service for 10 years and during that time, there have only been 2 frightening outages (that were difficult to understand and debug) - both of them were due to btrfs.
