Hi,

Garbage collections log shows about 14.8 TiB on disk used storage but S3 storage provider (Ceph s3 based) shows 17.5 TB used. Is this difference normal?

Code:
2026-03-11T10:20:16+03:00: On-Disk usage: 14.759 TiB (8.04%)

Regards,

Rahman
 
17.5 TB are about 15.9 TiB. Further, the garbage collection only shows you the chunk data, not including any metadata.
