Hi,

 

My Array setup:

 

My shares:

 

 

I copied data via rsync to an UD disk:

 

The command:

#!/bin/bash

SRC="/mnt/user/BackupsV2 /mnt/user/Downloads /mnt/user/e-Books /mnt/user/Transfer"
DST="/mnt/disks/92E6P00LT/backup/"

echo "Backing up: $SRC"
echo "To: $DST"
echo "Starting backup: $(date)"

rsync -a --delete --delete-before $SRC $DST

 

So far so good. The UD disk was empty (xfs). After copying only some of the data ends up with the UD disk using more space than the overall source?

 

353GB ALL data vs 440GB after copying only SOME data?

Can someone explain what is going on here?

 

root@NAS:~# du -hs /mnt/disks/92E6P00LT/
405G    /mnt/disks/92E6P00LT/
root@NAS:~# du -hs /mnt/disk1/
309G    /mnt/disk1/

 

Thanks in advance!

 

EDIT: Maybe some rsync stuff together with urBackup structure? One share is in use by urBackup server.

You will have the space used by the file system (Put there when the disk was formatted) in the figure for used space on the Unassigned disk.    I don't believe this file system space is included in space use by the files in the User Shares.
