I tried to use the mirror functionality when it was new. I tested booting with one disk missing. Errors all the way. I went into IRC and chatted with btrfs folk about the "bug". Their response? "Booting without all members of your mirror is unsupported."

It's certainly supported now. mount -o degraded. It ought to be the default, though.

  if it's not default yet it's a serious bug. a server should still come up completely with one disk in a mirror.
