BTRFS(8)                         Btrfs Manual                         BTRFS(8)

NAME
       btrfs - a toolbox to manage btrfs filesystems
SYNOPSIS
       btrfs <command> [<args>]
DESCRIPTION
       The btrfs utility is a toolbox for managing btrfs filesystems. There
       are command groups to work with subvolumes, devices, for whole
       filesystem or other specific actions. See section COMMANDS.
       There are also standalone tools for some tasks like btrfs-convert or
       btrfstune that were separate historically and/or haven't been merged to
       the main utility. See section STANDALONE TOOLS for more details.
       For other topics (mount options, etc) please refer to the separate
       manual page btrfs(5).
COMMAND SYNTAX
       Any command name can be shortened as far as it stays unambiguous,
       however it is recommended to use full command names in scripts. All
       command groups have their manual page named btrfs-<group>.
       For example: it is possible to run btrfs sub snaps instead of btrfs
       subvolume snapshot. But btrfs file s is not allowed, because file s may
       be interpreted both as filesystem show and as filesystem sync.
       If the command name is ambiguous, the list of conflicting options is
       printed.
       For an overview of a given command use btrfs command --help or btrfs
       [command...] --help --full to print all available options.
COMMANDS

           See btrfs-restore(8) for details.

           Scrub a btrfs filesystem.
           See btrfs-scrub(8) for details.
       send
           Send subvolume data to stdout/file for backup and etc.
           See btrfs-send(8) for details.

STANDALONE TOOLS
       There are several standalone tools to provide certain functionality. If
       the functionality proves to be useful, the standalone tools are
       declared obsolete and their functionality copied to the main tool. The
       deprecation period is long (years) and the obsolete binaries are still
       provided.
       Tools that are still in active use without an equivalent in btrfs:
       btrfs-convert
           in-place conversion from ext2/3/4 filesystems to btrfs
       btrfstune
           tweak some filesystem properties on a unmounted filesystem
       btrfs-select-super
           rescue tool to overwrite primary superblock from a spare copy
       btrfs-find-root
           rescue helper to find tree roots in a filesystem
       Deprecated and obsolete tools:
       btrfs-debug-tree
           moved to btrfs inspect-internal dump-tree
       btrfs-show-super
           moved to btrfs inspect-internal dump-super
       btrfs-zero-log
           moved to btrfs rescue zero-log
EXIT STATUS
       btrfs returns a zero exit status if it succeeds. Non zero is returned
       in case of failure.
AVAILABILITY
       btrfs is part of btrfs-progs. Please refer to the btrfs wiki
