Problem with free space limits on servers.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



option alu.limits.min-free-disk  20%

specifies to unify that stop scheduling new files (create, symlink, mknod)
to a subvolume once the free disk space on the subvolume reaches upto 80% of
total disk space. scheduler does not guarantee that the already created
files won't grow in size.

in fact, min-free-disk option stops scheduling to the subvolumes to allow
the already existing files to grow.
