See this:
Basically, when your btrfs is full, just create a loopback device, add
it
to the array, rebalance and then remove the device. This is what I had to do this Sunday :)
I don't know if you saw the beginning of the thread, but what started

Looks like the same problem, the advise was there to (temporary) covert to raid 1, and then back to raid 6. All with the new disk included, of course.
I actually tried converting to single, but that failed also. Believe it or not, I actually filled it up, again. I miscalculated my quota, and filled it up while restoring. This time, I added the extra hdd, and a loopback device, and it worked! I just finished removing the loopback device, and it's still in business. I'm working to test my 1TB quota, now. Then, I need to pay a little more attention to the next quota. Thanks, Jameson
