volume growing every day - solution?
equallogic PS6100.
have two of them, one syncreps volumes to the other.
i have this one thin provisioned volume that I store some linux servers on.
this volume is growing by 3% every day for the last few days, up to to 77% in use space now.
although I could just add more space to the volume ( I have plenty free), doesnt change the fact that it continues to grow.
not 100% clear on what causes the growth, but I think Eql doesnt allow you to reclaim space after it writes to block?
I have 13 VMs stored on this volume, total HD space for all of them is 904 GB.
Vmware shows 3 TB Datastore, 989 provisioned, 2 TB free.
EQL shows in-use 2.31TB, with 7.2 unreserved.
unless I change something, it will just continue to grow, so what are my options?
change volume so it is no longer thin -provisioned?
move everything to another volume?
