Hi All,

I have got an alert for my volume threshold reached as the space left on volume was only 12MB out of 107MB i have lun on top of this Volume which is of size 102MB, i have conveyed the client about this but he was telling the lun what he is using  on the windows side it was showing 61.1 MB free , so could anyone please explain about this.

Thanks,

Nayab

The figures don't match my theory 100%, but is your LUN space-reserved?

If it is, then all space is taken upfront from the volume, regardless of how much data is actually inside the LUN.
