Thats a good point. While dynamically adjusting available resources (e.g., disk) is a good idea, it would be very complex to implement. Maybe an alternative solution is for the slave to offer the whole disk space (not just free disk space) when it starts up, similar to how it offers memory/cpu. Once we have disk isolation in place (currently we don't support it) then the slave should correctly offer available disk as soon as it gets free. Ofcourse, if you clean up the disk out-of-band (not through mesos) then mesos wouldn't react to that.
Feel free to create a ticket. In the meanwhile, you can specify the disk resource as a command line flag, to force the slave to use that value as disk resource in its offer.
