Where did the other space go in the volume?

> df -h volume_name
Filesystem               total       used      avail capacity Mounted on
/vol/volume_name/       20TB     4992GB     8410GB      60% /volume_name
/vol/volume_name/.snapshot 0B    2348GB         0B       0% /volume_name/.snapshot

I don't understand, there should around 15TB available, 20TB-4992GB = 15TB. 2348GB is snapshots and should be contained in 4992GB. Correct?

How come only 8410GB as shown available?

what did I miss?

Snapshot reserve =0%

no Luns in the volume.

is everything thin provisioned in the aggregate?

I am not sure I understand you. but, this volume is thin provisioned. Most of volumes are in the aggregate.

Yup, exactly my point.. Since everything is thin provisioned, what your seeing is the entire aggregate space at this point. It gets confusing with this.

Just be careful b/c your obviously overprovisioned at this point.
