> btrfs-scrub.service Perhaps one could make additional "services" (of course again disabled by default. E.g. one that does balancing[0]. Then there could be a top level btrfs-maintenanance service, which pulls in all the others (e.g. balance and scrub). Also it would be nice, if one could control easily exclude/include-only filesystems (e.g. perhaps people have not so much interest in doing a scrub on their OS-filesystem, as that can be easily recovered in case of losses). Last but not least, even with systemd, I think it would be nice to have an easily accessible log that contains just any possible errors found during scrub. Cheers, Chris.
