if you use qemu, you can launch fstrim through guest-agent http://dustymabe.com/2013/06/26/enabling-qemu-guest-agent-anddddd-fstrim-again/ ----- Mail original ----- De: "M Ranga Swami Reddy" <[email protected]> À: "Wido den Hollander" <[email protected]> Cc: "ceph-users" <[email protected]> Envoyé: Mercredi 11 Mai 2016 13:16:27 Objet: Re: [ceph-users] rbd resize option Thank you. but the fstrim can used with in mount partition...But I wanted to as cloud admin... I have a few uses with high volume size (ie capacity) allotted, but only used 5% of the capacity. so I wanted to reduce the size to 10% of size using the rbd resize command. But in this process, if a customer's volume has more than 10% data, then I may end-up with data lost...
