Different sizes - SMB folder based on ZFS pool

Post by RobJ_NAS »

Hello,

i have a ZFS Raidz-1 pool on my N40L with 4x 3TB based on Nas4Free Version NAS4Free 10.3.0.3 (3379).
Disks|ZFS|Pools|Management shows Size=10.9T, Alloc 10.4T and Free 531G.

This pool was mounted in Win10 showing 7.65TB size and only 132 GB free spacce.

Where is the mistake? What can I do to the full size of the raid usable?

Thanks in advance
Christian

you only have 132GB usable, and 7,65TB of usable data ( no parity), and 10.9 TB of total size ( including parity).
12.1.0.4 - Ingva (revision 7743) on SUPERMICRO X8SIL-F 8GB of ECC RAM, 11x3TB disk in 1 vdev = Vpool = 32TB Raw size , so 29TB usable size (I Have other NAS as Backup)

Hello raulfg3,

thanks for your support.
However i'm still confused.
NAS4FREE shows 4 hdd with each 2861589MB. Without parity I can use 3*2,86GB = 8,58 TB. This should be the size of the samba share.

Kind regards
Christian

you are right, but i have no answer.

sometimes size is show incorrectly because ZFS dataset can be created using compresion and/or dedup, in this case you can have more free space than (total-used) because this. but i do not know if is your case.

Hello again,

as I had activated the pool the rubish bin was activated. Later on I canceled the option in the web interface and deleted the hidden files in the root level of the share. Are there any other hidden files which could reduce the free space?

Beside that I assume that the space overall is not enough.
Any ideas to check what's going wrong?

Kind regards
Christian
