Hi, please excuse my noobness, I've recently inherited a Netapp system or 3, I'm fairly new to SANs in general and netapp in particular. This isnt my full time gig (storage), its one thing amongst the 2 thousand other things I'm working on today, but I allocate a fair amount of time to figuring this stuff out.
I'm struggling with something I'm sure all netapp storage people go through, I've read the manuals, I've played around for about 6 months on the filers and I cant answer this.
I have a FAS3020. I have a volume, lets call it vol_bond. Its 820GB, 20% snap reserve. It contains one lun, which is 320GB. The space guarantee is volume, and fractional reserve is 100.
Currently, there are 5 snapshots, totalling 8GB. It is snap mirrored to another filer. Snapshots are created nightly, there are no problems with that. At weekends, after various backup activity, these grow to about 80GB, but we only keep 5 and they're deleted.
Its all up and running, everythings fine.
Except for the filer status which reports: /vol/vol_bond is full (using or reserving 98% of space and 0% of inodes, using 49% of reserve) and the df -r output is
/vol/vol_bondv8/ 687865856 670681368 17184488 335194536 /vol/vol_bondv8/ /vol/vol_bondv8/.snapshot 171966464 14140040 157826424 0 /vol/vol_bondv8/.snapshot
What am I missing? I thought I had this thing nailed but obviously not.
