Unity 480F - Question on Quota

Hello,

I am new to unity, and I need know that when we display the file systems for NAS server.

The Size shows = 10GB

The Used shows = 1.8GB

The Allocated shows = 0.5GB

Shouldn't the Size and Allocated be same? why it is different? what am I missing? 

There is no quota set on the file system.

    Hello ramohi,

    NFS shares are thin provisioned.  As space is needed it will increase in size till it reaches it max available configured space.  Here is a link to EMC Unity Family Configuring NFS File Sharing which has some additional information as well.  https://dell.to/3JoAO34

    Here is also a link to Unity info hub which has some additional white papers and guides as well. https://dell.to/3FajbkW
