If the automatic SR scan isn't happening, garbage collection also won't happen. This is something I ran into very recently in another project. To check if the auto-scan is disabled, issue the following command:
xe sr-list uuid=[your uuid] params=all look at the "other-config" and see if there is an "auto-scan: false" entry. If so, then auto-scan isn't going to run. To kick it off manually, issue the following command: xe sr-scan uuid=[your uuid] Depending upon how much stuff is in there, it could take some time (read hours). If there are still things left kicking around after this is all done, look in the SMlog for exceptions and see what they have to say. -tim On Tue, May 5, 2015 at 4:23 PM, Erik Weber <[email protected]> wrote: > Cleanup is enabled. > > No errors in SMlog, > this is the output of vhd-util scan: http://pastebin.com/amBdJSSG > > -- > Erik > > On Tue, May 5, 2015 at 10:10 PM, Somesh Naidu <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > No, that is not the expectation unless you have storage cleanup disabled > > (storage.cleanup.enabled). > > > > "quite some stale snapshots " - that sounds like leftovers from failed CS > > snapshot operation and/or failing SR scan on XS due to some corrupt VHDs > > interrupting XS GC.
