DF reported only 83% full Could not delete files I had to delete all snapshots to clear space There does not appear to be a snapper cleanup algorithm that stops snapshots at a particular drive space threshold / beings cleanup at that point. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.Let snapshots continue to run 2.Do not manually cleanup 3.Drive reports full even though DF says % != 100% Actual Results: drive fills up unexpectedly Expected Results: drive begins to fill up and cleanup procedure is initiated. Using drive space utilization check like df should show meaningful result like 100% when full. Also, for example Windows Shadow copy permits setting threshold and snapshots stop / cleanup routines run when threshold is reached 5GB / 15 % whaever is yet -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
