Имя (Name)

mkfs.btrfs - create a btrfs filesystem


Синопсис (Synopsis)

mkfs.btrfs [options] <device> [<device>...]


Описание (Description)

mkfs.btrfs is used to create the btrfs filesystem on a single or multiple devices. <device> is typically a block device but can be a file-backed image as well. Multiple devices are grouped by UUID of the filesystem.

Before mounting such filesystem, the kernel module must know all the devices either via preceding execution of btrfs device scan or using the device mount option. See section MULTIPLE DEVICES for more details.

The default block group profiles for data and metadata depend on number of devices and possibly other factors. It's recommended to use specific profiles but the defaults should be OK and allowing future conversions to other profiles. Please see options -d and -m for further detals and btrfs-balance(8) for the profile conversion post mkfs.
