hi, i'm using a zvol someone else created (and then used as an iSCSI Target, via: "iscsitadm ... -b /dev/zvol ...").
I see that AVAIL has a size of 33GB, yet the VOLSIZE is 24GB ; # zfs list -t volume -o name,avail,used,volsize iscsi-pool/log_1_1 NAME AVAIL USED VOLSIZE iscsi-pool/log_1_1 33.7G 24.4G 24.4G I debugged 'format', and it received a size of 24GB from Sun's iSCSI Target implementation. 'format' did a READ-CAPACITY (scsi) cmd and was returned "24GB". why does 33GB show as AVAIL ? should i be expecting 33GB's worth of usable disk space? ...or does AVAIL (for some weird reason also) include metadata) ?? # zdb -v iscsi-pool/log_1_1 Dataset iscsi-pool/log_1_1 [ZVOL], ID 117, cr_txg 74, 54.0K, 3 objects Object lvl iblk dblk lsize asize type 0 7 16K 16K 16K 14.0K DMU dnode 1 4 16K 8K 24.4G 38.0K zvol object <<<<<< 2 1 16K 512 512 1K zvol prop thanks /andrew -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
