Description: Tiny Btrfs maintenance daemon
Btrfsd is a lightweight daemon that takes care of running Btrfs filesystem
maintenance tasks.
It can:
.
* Check for detected errors and broadcast a warning if any were found,
or optionally send an email
* Perform scrub periodically if the system is not on battery
* Optionally run balancing operations periodically
.
The daemon is designed to be run on any system, from a small notebook to a
large storage server.
If no Btrfs filesystems are found, the daemon will be inert.
.
By default, Btrfsd is called every hour via a systemd timer.
