February 9, 20251 yr I expect this issue predates 7.0. I noticed unraid is reporting my docker folder size as 3.89 TiB. Looking through the directories I traced it to overlay2, but it's so big with so many files du -sh just times out. Setting max depth 1 I can see there's some multi gig folders in here (just at 1 level). I've run docker system prune --all etc and nothing is getting cleaned up, and docker system df is showing ~15 GB of space. Any ideas why this folder is so big or advice on how to debug further? I'm running about 25 dockers, fairly standard plex, *arr, etc.
February 9, 20251 yr Community Expert the docker folder size is reporting the pool size where it resides on. 723 GB are 673 GiB Edited February 9, 20251 yr by Mainfrezzer
February 10, 20251 yr Author Hmm okay, it's on a 120TB pool though, but I was getting alerts before about docker space available that corresponded to the disk not the pool/share. Mostly I just want to make sure of the size before I move it back to my cache to see if it resolves my issues with updating taking so long they timeout. I guess I just need to wait for du -sh to finish to see how big it is?
