Hello Ahmed,

I'm rather new to the lfs_migrate command as well, but one thing to double 
check is after you run the migrate, have you done an


lfs getstripe


for a couple of the files it thinks it migrated to make sure they moved off of 
the OST?  Also, did you properly disable the OST in the MDS to make sure new 
files were not written to it?  Here is the document I was following:

Subject: [lustre-discuss] lfs_migrate issue


Good day,

I have been trying to migrate the data one of the OSTs in my lustre file system 
before removing the OST.

I have used the following command:

lfs find --obd lustre-OST0001_UUID /lustre | lfs_migrate -sy

I believe the data has been copied correctly.


However, when I check the size of the directories that has been participating 
in the migration process, I notice that the size has increased with a 3 or 4 GB 
increase, even after removing the OST.

I am not sure what is the reason for this issue and how I can return those 
directories to their original sizes.

I am using lustre 2.10.1.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
