I have an issue where changelog overflow will not zero out.

ONTAP version is 9.8P17

*> volume efficiency show -vserver xxx_sdlc_fc -volume *valu* -fields changelog-usage, changelog-size, changelog-overflow
vserver volume changelog-usage changelog-size changelog-overflow

6 entries were displayed.

I used the -scan-old-data true option should there be another where those 4 volumes be like 05 and 06?

Yes, which is the reason I thought was happen as nothing showed up in the event log show command other than changelog full. So I end up stopping sis and restarted it with -scan-old-data and -scan-all. That seem to clear it in the end. Just took awhile like 4 to 5 days.

Those were nfs share to linux servers. no any datastores.

Thanks for your help

What is in those volumes? If they are VM datastores, make sure the swap/tempdb files are in a separate FlexVol so they don't cause high change rate. It seems there is high change rate so dedupe cannot keep up.

You're welcome. It might be worth looking at what is on those volumes and seeing what you can do to move any high change rate data into a separate volume anyway.

 

Glad you got it sorted. 🙂
