      @olivierlambert Here in Portugal: Securnet

      But I'd appreciate it a lot if you could clarify this for me.

      @manilx P.S: This is why we only migrated a small instance.... To learn!

      E.g. This is the space used by one disk... It's using 500+ GB (it's a 300GB VM disk)

    • RE: SR space occupied by backup snapshots

      @olivierlambert Sorry but I don't understand this. Call me stupid....

      In the first screenshot of the disks in the SR:
      I have the disk + 2 snapshots of the same size as the disk. So I understand the space used is not 3x disk size? What is it then?

      I'm asking this all because after 2 running backups I'm running out of disk space.
      These are the SR's:

      If I need to reformat in ext4 we have to redo this.
      Going forward we are migrating our 2 main big hosts from vmware and I need to understand this before as once formatted it is a PITA to reformat when there are vm's.

      Really appreciate your clarification on this as it is very different from esx.

      @Gheppy OK..... Weird.
      What's the advantage/disadvantge of LVM vs ETX4 and vice versa then?

    • RE: SR space occupied by backup snapshots

      @manilx P.S. Clicking on one disk of a VM to understand it I get:
      The disk, 2 snapshots and a base copy?
      What's the base copy?
      In this case a 200GB disk is using 4x200GB? Can't be. Totally confused.
