RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
We have very simple description about "filesystem balance" command, need more detailed descriptions about:

btrfs fi balance start
btrfs fi balance pause
btrfs fi balance cancel
btrfs fi balance resume
btrfs fi balance status
(described at http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg14365.html)

And all filters as described at https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Balance_Filters

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
btrfs-progs-0.20.rc1.20130917git194aa4a-1.el7
upstream btrfs-progs too

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. man 8 btrfs and search for balance command
2.
3.

Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:

This has moved to the btrfs-balance(8) manpage.

However, there is still no description of filters, for example.

Fixed in v3.16 with:

6c30bee btrfs-progs: Documentation: Add filter section for btrfs-balance.


Closing this and others with NEXTRELEASE since it's part of a rebase, but if you prefer we can re-open, get all the acks, and add it to the errata.  I'm not sure if that's worth it, but if you want to, please let me know.

Thanks,
-Eric

Actually, probably better to dup to the rebase bug.
