Makia,

The drive sizes are 7.6 TB which translates to about 6.9 TiB (which is the unit 
that zpool uses for "T").  So the zpool sizes as just 10 x 6.9T = 69T since 
zpool shows the total amount of disk space available to the pool.  The usable 
space (which is what df is reporting) should be more like 0.8 x 69T = 55T.  I 
am not sure about the discrepancy of 3T.  Maybe that is due to some ZFS and/or 
Lustre overhead?

answers, so I’ll re-ask in hopefully a slightly different way.
    On an OST, I have 30 drives, each at 7.6TB. I create 3 raidz2 zpools of 10 
devices (ashift=12):

    [root@lustre47b ~]# zpool list
    NAME            SIZE  ALLOC   FREE  CKPOINT  EXPANDSZ   FRAG    CAP  DEDUP  
  HEALTH  ALTROOT
    oss55-0  69.9T  37.3M  69.9T        -         -     0%     0%  1.00x    
ONLINE  -
    oss55-1  69.9T  37.3M  69.9T        -         -     0%     0%  1.00x    
ONLINE  -
    oss55-2  69.9T  37.4M  69.9T        -         -     0%     0%  1.00x    
ONLINE  -
    [root@lustre47b ~]#


    Running a mkfs.lustre against these (and the lustre mount) and I see:

    [root@lustre47b ~]# df -h | grep ost
    oss55-0/ost165             52T   27M   52T   1% /lustre/ost165
    oss55-1/ost166             52T   27M   52T   1% /lustre/ost166
    oss55-2/ost167             52T   27M   52T   1% /lustre/ost167
    [root@lustre47b ~]#


    Basically, we’re seeing a pretty dramatic loss in capacity (156TB vs 
209.7TB, so a loss of about 50TB). Is there any insight on where this capacity 
is disappearing to? If there some mkfs.lustre or zpool option I missed in 
creating this? Is something just reporting slightly off and that space really 
is there?

    Thanks.
