Storage size for clusters

[Taledo]

Hi All,
Got PDM up and running. Working well, but I'd like to know more on the "host storage Used".

Here on one of my cluster, it is showing 69Tb (ish) of total storage. However, my 3 nodes have a combined storage of 25Tb only. The PBS attached to this cluster has 65Tb of total space, so it doesn't work out either.



Cheers

Hi @Taledo,

Perhaps adding a few more full page screenshots would help here. Its unclear where this data came from exactly, or how it correlates to your actual hosts. Providing exact CLI metrics data from the hosts would be helpful as well.

Cheers

Also note that Tb, TB and TiB are different units/values.

Right, 69TiB is 75TB, which perhaps is 25x3? But then Op says that they only have 25TB _total_.
@Taledo , its all speculation until hard supporting data is provided.

The 3 PVE in the cluster have :
PVE1 10.3TiB
PVE2 10.3TiB
PVE3 4.29TiB

of storage space each (HD Space in the status page).

Additionally, the cluster has access to a 65.49 TB (~59.56TiB) Proxmox Backup server.

The PDM reports 69.9TiB of total space on the cluster. Something doesn't add up...

But I think I may have it figured out? I added the cluster via one of the 10.3TiB PVE. 59.56+10.3 = 69.86, which is exactly what the PDM is reporting.

So it seems the PDM reports the storage of the PVE that's been used for add the cluster, the PBS, but not the other PVEs.
