    Running out of space... Suggestions?

    Hi guys it's been a while since I've been active on this board. I built my server over 7 years ago and now I'm finally running out of space.

    Yet another thread about how to assess disk usage on ZFS

    Hello all, I can see this is a recurrent question about data usage and properly determining whether you have enough space or not when working with ZFS. I know, compression, dedup and all sorts of features make it hard to assess how much actual space is consumed. The problem I have is that all...
