Wrong disk usage report on xfs

Post by selva »

For an xfs repository on unbuntu 20.04, VBR 10 shows something like capacity: 1.3 TB, user 900GB, free 700 GB. The free space is correct but used space is wrong (should be about 600GB). A recently created synthetic full (~300GB) takes no space but gets double counted in the used column possibly because of the way stat() works (or is Veeam using du?).

Is there anything I can do to get a correct disk usage report? Not overly concerned as the free space shows the right number.

Hello,
that behavior is the same like for REFS with block cloning. Nothing you can change.

As you mention stat... how can the command show the really used space of one folder? Because there could be multiple repositories on one volume. So using the volume statistics does not work.

Best regards,
Hannes
