Hello,
I'm using stratis for many years now (for my /home and /opt mount
points). It looks like this:
$ stratis pool
Name Total / Used / Free Properties
UUID Alerts
stratis_hdd 1.43 TiB / 819.51 GiB / 645.32 GiB Ca,~Cr, Op
093c8d42-21b8-46a2-a7e8-5d35f458fa58 WS001
$ stratis fs

stratis_hdd /dev/dm-7 1.43 TiB DATA

However, since a few weeks my /home has become unstable. Newly created
(or altered) files are (sometimes) corrupted after a reboot of the system.
For both mount points I'm using a SSD cache in front of a HDD. It feels
a bit like the caching layer is all right, but the HDD layer is on error
(exhausted?). For me, it looks like that would explain the observed
behaviour.
I wonder if
* I could somehow 'disable' (or remove) the SSD caching layer?
* I could get some debug informations?
Kind regards,
