So are you saying that if I do this I'll have 1M files in stray? mkdir /a cd /a for i in {1..1000000}; do touch $i; done # create 1M files in /a cd .. mkdir /b mkdir /b/.snap/testsnap # create a snap in the empty dir /b rm -rf /a/ Cheers, Dan _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@ceph.io To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-le...@ceph.io
