Hi,

I have the impression I am missing 1 TB. Please have a look to my hardware server disk usage on /dev/mapper/pve-data:

Code:
 root@pmox12:~# [COLOR=#0000ff]df -h[/COLOR]
Filesystem                   Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev                          10M     0   10M   0% /dev
tmpfs                        797M  400K  797M   1% /run
/dev/mapper/pve-root          95G  1.8G   88G   2% /
tmpfs                        5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
tmpfs                        1.6G   47M  1.6G   3% /run/shm
[COLOR=#ff0000]/dev/mapper/pve-data         2.6T  2.6T   61G  [B]98%[/B] /var/lib/vz[/COLOR]
/dev/sda2                    495M  187M  282M  40% /boot
/dev/fuse                     30M  100K   30M   1% /etc/pve
pmox12:/var/lib/vz/nfs/pmox  2.6T  2.6T   61G  98% /mnt/pve/sv-NFS

But I get the foder size, I get:

Code:
root@pmox12:~# [COLOR=#0000ff]du -ch [/COLOR][COLOR=#ff0000]/var/lib/vz[/COLOR][COLOR=#0000ff] | grep total[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#ff0000][B]1.6T[/B]    total[/COLOR]

May you please help me understand what I am missing? Is there any way I can get back that 1 TB?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards.
 
Hi M.Ardito,

This server has no VMs stored. I use it as NFS server for ProxMox dumps. I installed ProxMox to be able to run VMs just in case of emergencies, but today it has no VMs.

Regards.
 
Folder content details:

Code:
root@pmox12:/var/lib/vz# [COLOR=#0000ff]du -ch /var/lib/vz[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#008000]4.0K    /var/lib/vz/images[/COLOR]

60M     /var/lib/vz/nfs/pmox/template

8.0K    /var/lib/vz/backups
1.6T    /var/lib/vz
1.6T    total

As you may guess, I am using /var/lib/vz/nfs as my NFS exchange folder.

Hi Marco,

As you can see in my previous post, all folders are empty expceto the NFS one...

I had a look to your link, but I think it does not apply here.

Regards.
 
which kind of usage has the nfs share? It seems that physically is 1.6TB but it reserves 2.6TB to the OS, as it's seen by df -h...

It used for ProxMox dumps:

Code:
[COLOR=#ff0000]1.6T[/COLOR]    /var/lib/vz/nfs/pmox/dump

And a single ISO file:

Code:
[COLOR=#ff0000]60M [/COLOR]    /var/lib/vz/nfs/pmox/template/iso
