Hi, I have a problem with my ZFS storage: some application filled a certain directory in /var completely up with data and the server runs a script which takes a snapshot every night. So, ~650 GB of the available 700 GB were filled up.
Then I destroyed the last two snapshots (each referencing about 300 GB) and the files on the live system so that now there are no snapshots for /var and "du -hs /var" reports a size of 2 GB. However, zfs still reports that 623G are referenced: # zfs list rpool/var NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT rpool/var 623G 48.4G 623G /var # zfs get all rpool/var ... rpool/var usedbysnapshots 0 - rpool/var usedbydataset 623G - rpool/var usedbychildren 0 - rpool/var usedbyrefreservation 0 - ... If I take a snapshot again, this snapshot also references 623G. What can I do to reclaim this space? I have to do this before I can set a quota (I have set quotas for all other file systems now :) ). -- Best regards, Andreas _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
