Capacity licensing calculations are wrong
I was reviewing our capacity-based usage for licensing and looking at the actual reported usage in the report and some of the systems are way off in terms of reported size. One system in particular is one I just added in yesterday, so it has just the one brand new backup. It's a Windows 2019 VM running on a Windows 2019 Hyper-V host. The VHD files on the Hyper-V server show as being 230 GB, backed up on the local media the backup is 175 GB in size, but the capacity usage calculation for it shows 456 GB counted against us for it.
What can cause such a massive discrepancy is reported space usage? I was about to add in another server, but this incorrectly counted usage has put me too close to our capacity limit I dare not risk adding another system that might also be reported incorrectly pushing us over our limit.
