Not really sure what you want, but for simplicity, just move folder to following structure: /volumes/[Sub Volume Group Name]/[Sub Volume Name] ceph will recognize it (no extend attr needed), if you use subvolumegroup name difference than "_nogroup", you must provide it in all subvolume command [--group_name <subvol_group_name>] regards, Anh Phan On Wed, Aug 23, 2023 at 6:51 PM Eugen Block <eblock@nde.ag> wrote:

Hi Eugen,
thank you for the message. I've already tried the process of changing the classic directory to a subvolume, but it also didn't appear in the list of set subvolumes. Perhaps it's no longer supported?

Hi,
I don't know if there's a way to change the path (I assume not except creating a new path and copy the data), but you could set up a directory the "old school" way (mount the root filesystem, create your subdirectory tree) and then convert the directory into a subvolume by setting the subvolume xattr (according to [1]):
# setfattr -n ceph.dir.subvolume -v 1 my/favorite/dir/is/now/a/subvol1
But I'm not sure if that works as expected, I tried with Pacific and Reef but the directory doesn't turn up in 'ceph fs subvolume ls <cephfs>'. Shouldn't it? Or am I misunderstanding hwo it works?

Hi!
I'm trying to figure out how to specify the path for a CephFS subvolume, as it's intended to represent a user's home directory. By default, it's located at /volumes/_nogroup/$NAME/$UUID. Is it possible to change this path somehow, or is using symbolic links the only option?
Thank you Michal Strnad
