As part of a support ticket (case # 08231420), we discovered that VSA does not support thin provisioning.
The problem is that neither fstrim nor fstab with the discard option are used.
Since the size of a repository volume cannot currently be changed, a generous initial size must be chosen.
This is particularly problematic when SOBR is not the optimal solution.
Therefore, please consider this minor change in the next release.

Re: VSA does not release storage on thin provisoned backup repo using trim
Hi Stefan,
Noted on the request, will discuss it internally. I cannot promise that it will be in the next release, but use case is understood and will consider it.
