Hello Proxmox community,
I'm facing an issue with my Proxmox setup where my storage pool has a total capacity of +3 TB, but the space is getting smaller by the day, even though my virtual machines (VMs) collectively use less than 2 TB. I've analyzed the usage of my VMs and there don't seem to be any exceptionally large files or datasets associated directly with them.
Here are some details and the steps I've considered so far:
Snapshots and backups: I've checked that there are no significant accumulated snapshots or backup files that could be consuming the extra space.(There isn't)
I don't know what else could be causing this discrepancy. Has anyone had a similar problem or could you suggest additional diagnostic steps to identify the root cause and what I can do to fix it?
Any insight or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!
