I pushed a lot of more data to the cluster. Then I lead the cluster sleep for the night. This morning I find this values: 6841 MB data 25814 MB used that is a bit more of 1 to 3. It looks like the extra space is in these folders (for N from 1 to 36): /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-N/current/meta/ This "meta" folders have a lot of data in it. I would really be happy to have pointers to understand what is in there and how to clean that up eventually. The problem is that googling for "ceph meta" or "ceph metadata" will produce results for Ceph MDS that is completely unrelated :( thanks Saverio _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
