# mergerfs-tools
|
|
|
|
Optional tools to help manage data in a mergerfs pool.
|
|
|
|
## INSTALL
|
|
|
|
All of these suplimental tools are self contained Python3 apps. Make sure you have Python 3 installed and either run `make install` or copy the file to `/usr/local/bin` or wherever you keep your binarys and make it executable (chmod +x).
|
|
|
|
## TOOLS
|
|
### mergerfs.ctl
|
|
|
|
A wrapper around the mergerfs xattr interface.
|
|
|
|
[Download latest](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trapexit/mergerfs-tools/master/src/mergerfs.ctl)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ mergerfs.ctl -h
|
|
usage: mergerfs.ctl [-h] [-m MOUNT] {add,remove,list,get,set,info} ...
|
|
|
|
positional arguments:
|
|
{add,remove,list,get,set,info}
|
|
|
|
optional arguments:
|
|
-h, --help show this help message and exit
|
|
-m MOUNT, --mount MOUNT
|
|
mergerfs mount to act on
|
|
$ mergerfs.ctl info
|
|
- mount: /storage
|
|
version: 2.14.0
|
|
pid: 1234
|
|
srcmounts:
|
|
- /mnt/drive0
|
|
- /mnt/drive1
|
|
$ mergerfs.ctl -m /storage add path /mnt/drive2
|
|
$ mergerfs.ctl info
|
|
- mount: /storage
|
|
version: 2.14.0
|
|
pid: 1234
|
|
srcmounts:
|
|
- /mnt/drive0
|
|
- /mnt/drive1
|
|
- /mnt/drive2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### mergerfs.fsck
|
|
|
|
Audits permissions and ownership of files and directories in a mergerfs mount and allows for manual and automatic fixing of them.
|
|
|
|
It's possible that files or directories can be duplicated across multiple drives and that their metadata become out of sync. Permissions, ownership, etc. This can cause some strange behavior depending on the mergerfs policies used. This tool helps find and fix those inconsistancies.
|
|
|
|

|
$ mergerfs.fsck -h
|
|
usage: mergerfs.fsck [-h] [-v] [-s] [-f {manual,newest,nonroot}] dir
|
|
|
|
audit a mergerfs mount for inconsistencies
|
|
|
|
positional arguments:
|
|
dir starting directory
|
|
|
|
optional arguments:
|
|
-h, --help show this help message and exit

```
|
|
|
|
### mergerfs.dup
|
|
|
|
Duplicates files & directories across branches in a pool. The file selected for duplication is picked by the `dup` option. Files will be copied to drives with the most free space. Deleted from others if `prune` is enabled.
|
|
|
|
See usage for more. Run as `root`. Requires `rsync` to be installed.
|
|
|
|
[Download latest](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/trapexit/mergerfs-tools/master/src/mergerfs.dup)
|
|
|
|
```
|

|
|
* smallest : file with smallest size

rsync ...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### mergerfs.consolidate
|
|
|
|
Consolidate **files** in a **single** mergerfs directory onto a **single** drive, recursively. This does **NOT** move all files at and below that directory to 1 drive. If you want to move data between drives simply use normal rsync or similar. This tool is only useful in niche usecases where the person wants to colocate files of their TV, music, etc. files onto a single drive *after the fact.* If you really wanted that you should probably use path preservation. For most people there is only downsides to using path preservation or colocating files.
|
|
|
|
Run as `root`. Requires `rsync` to be installed.
