Hey all,

Edit: changed confusing wording based on dack’s comment.

I have a problem. I’m building a SAN and I’m playing around with btrfs to learn more about how to use it.

I run into the problem where my sdd1 partition is recognized as swap filesystem. I don’t understand whats going on here. I formatted all these drives through my usb-dock via my desktop. All the others are fine, so why is this one giving me problems? I tried removing it with parted amd recreating it as btrfs or ext4 doesnt seem to help.

Does anyone have any insight of why this is happening?

root@server :~# lsblk --fs

    Hey thanks! Thats it. mkfs.btrfs fixed it. Its weitd though that the other disks were recognized correctly.

    Now I can go and experiment with raid setups
