Summary
This chapter consisted of reviewing the basic concepts of storage management and focused on the Btrfs filesystem, performing practical examples to understand its use and main features, identifying storage devices, formatting storage devices, creating pools, and mounting filesystems.
We clarified some items that assist in optimizing the allocation of storage space and learned the main differences between Btrfs subvolumes and LVM.
As a bonus, we discussed the Fedora Project’s new approach to storage management with Stratis, the intention of which is to ease storage management.
In the next chapter, we will cover the fundamental concepts and configurations of network connections and how to optimize them.
