Hello,I have recently migrated my openldap server from hdb to mdb. In this kind of database you configure the maximal database size with maxsize option. Although I have configure this option with 8GB, more than the double of my actual database size, I would like to know if there is any way to calculate the remaining size. According to [1] you can get the actual size with a du. But my problem is that I'm using zfs with a compressed file system, so du reports the compressed size, not the real one.
Addressing this from the filesystem side, rather than openldap, "du -A" reports the apparent size rather than the used size - this gives you the file sizes without compression. That's for FreeBSD, I have not used zfs on linux, but it looks like "du --apparent-size" should do the same thing.
