QA:Testcase bcache-tools home on bcache (no LVM)

Description

/home on bcache (no LVM) Once your fresh Fedora 20 system is running, we will "move" /home to a bcache device. To do this it's convenient to have a minimum amount of data on /home.

Prerequisites

QA:Testcase_bcache-tools-prerequisites

Setup

1. Open terminal
2. Switch to root user: su -
3. Install bcache tools: yum install bcache-tools
4. If needed "backup" all data in /home to another place on your root filesystem:
   1. comment /home out in your /etc/fstab
   2. unmount /home (which is on /dev/sda2)
   3. Make /dev/sda2 a bcache backing device: make-bcache -B /dev/sda2
   4. Make /dev/sdb1 a bcache caching device: make-bcache -C /dev/sdb1
   5. Note the set uuid and attach /dev/sdb1 to /dev/sda2: echo <set uuid> > /sys/block/bcache0/bcache/attach

Now you have a bcache device: /dev/bcache0

1. use "bcache-status -s" to see details about your bcache device.
2. create a filesystem: mkfs -t ext4 -L HOME /dev/bcache0
3. create a /home entry in your /etc/fstab: LABEL=HOME /home ext4 defaults 1 2
4. mount /home: mount -a
5. If needed restore the /home backup you made earlier.

Now you have a system with /home on bcache.

How to test

1. reboot your system to see if it boots OK.
2. do some other tests generation I/O on /home if you like.

Expected Results

1. All steps complete without errors
