On my pver730 server, VM 103 has 2 attached drives, which are 200G and 160G.

The VM also has NO snapshots in Proxmox:

HOWEVER, a "zfs list" command shows a different story:

Both VM 103 disks are using 348G and 289G. I don't understand how this is possible?

It is a problem because I'm trying to replicate this machine to a different server that doesn't have as much storage as the primary server.
