btrfs and deduplication

Show all headers | View raw

Hi there,

currently iam trying to get deduplication working in debian/btrfs

#so i created a btrfs filesystem

mkfs.btrfs /dev/vdb1
mkdir /mnt/btrfs
mount /dev/vdb1 /mnt/btrfs

# create some random file
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/btrfs/img bs=1M count=1024
for i in {1..30}; do cp /mnt/btrfs/img /mnt/btrfs/img$i; done

# dedup this stuff
jdupes -S -B -r /mnt/btrfs/
Examining 31 files, 1 dirs (in 1 specified)
Deduplication done (30 files processed)
