Space Reclaim from ScaleIO Thin Volumes using ESXi UNMAP
We have thin volumes on ScaleIO .Every time we delete a VM, reduce space from Apps end the space does not get reclaim .I had tried running ESXi unmap command on scaleIO luns but I get error "device backing volume do not support UNMAP" .
Is there any way we can reclaim space on ScaleIO volumes if we delete a VM or reduce space consumption from Apps end on thin Volumes

Hi,
TRIM/UNMAP should be supported just fine. Could you please provide more information about your environment (ESXi and ScaleIO versions, VMFS type, exact command used and --query_volume output for datastore you are trying to shrink)?
Cheers,
Pawel
