Hi everyone,

I'd like to pull your attention to this ticket on Github (https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/issues/427) where people – including myself – are claiming that their pool/cpool isn't going down in size anymore with version 4.x after hosts or old backups are removed.

E.g. removing a host with 99Gb of unique files (OS images mostly) would not result in any gained space, even after several Nightly runs.

Another example: The same hosts being backed up with version 3.x resulted in a maximum of 430 Gb, but now take up 576Gb with v4.x. (Not sure though whether these values can be compared?)

Given that, according to threads from about 13 years ago, it's not possible to determine which hosts are really taking up the space on disk, we're a little at a loss here with storage running out on us.

We'd be more than happy for any advice on how to further analyze this problem.


Thanks,
David
