[SOLVED][6.9.1] Cache Drive Utilization Going Up But No Data Being Created?


Recommended Posts

So over the last day or two my Cache drive has been seeing an increase in data being written to it. Currently the UI and Grafana both say that 230GB are being used:

unknown.pngunknown.png?width=1440&height=117

 

Yet when I go into /mnt/cache and do a du I only see 187GB being used:

Any ideas where this discrepancy is coming from and where the data actually is? I even did a scrub recently.

Part of it is the differing units (GB vs GiB) between what the dashboard says (500GB drive) vs the commands (465GB drive)

 

du --si will give a larger value, and the rest is probably taken up by metadata storage 

 

 

So using the calculate option on the share tab, I am not seeing any significant growth on any share that uses my cache yet my cache drive utilization has gone up 10GB since my initial post. Any clue what causes that?
