Puredisk content router containers

[Lance_the_Boil]

Hi,

I have a CR that has 1.1TB used, and has 2.8TB available.

But of that space it is mostly taken up with containers. So I have 2.56TB available within containers.

This would be fantastic exceot that I want to do a DR backup but don;t want to backup over 3 TB of data when it's just over 1 TB that is valida data.

How can I reduce the space availabe within the containers and make the actual disk usage much lower?

FYI - I have deleted a load of data recently hence the large amount of available space.

Thanks,

Tim.

PS. I know I should ring support but I cannot wait 2 days for them to bother to ring back.

You can clean up empty containers running this

for i in `seq 100` ; do echo -n "$i :" ; /opt/pdcr/bin/crcontrol --compactreleasesp 100 0 ; sleep 60 ; done

It may take some time, try change the 100 to 10 if you want to try run less time.
