Hi Dan,

Couple questions:
What version of OneFS?
Did you run snapshotdelete after deleting the snaps?

Thanks Dan.

There are a couple things that catch my attention based on what you posted. I see that /ifs/.ifsvar is taking up a good chunk of space compared to what is available. I question whether the issue is something in that directory filling up because of a problem, or if that directory is a normal size and there just isn't enough space. The last time I looked, I believe that virtual clusters required a minimum of 42G per node and minimum of three nodes. I don't know if those requirements changed with OneFS 8.x.

Is there one file or directory taking up the bulk of /ifs/.ifsvar?

Thank you for your response.

I check .ifsvar

# du -sh /ifs/.ifsvar

12G    /ifs/.ifsvar

#

and these are the two directories that are taking most of the space

# du -sh modules

9.0G    modules

# du -sh upgrade

2.1G    upgrade

#

Not sure if we can clean up these directories.

You brought up a good point about the required 42GB per virtual node but this cluster was on 8.0.0.4 and upgraded to 8.1.0.4 and I believe the space requirement is the same for both versions. We started experiencing this issue after we upgrade to 8.1.

So is our option now to destroy this and re-create a new virtual cluster using the 8.1 image or if we allocate more space on the VMware side, will the cluster see the new allocated space?

Thanks
