Oracle Solaris ZFS File System (MOSC)

ZFS space reporting, snapshots, clones and how NFS deals with it

This Blog article, tries to address these questions:

  • How can I tell how much storage a file uses?
  • How does that change with compression or snapshots?
  • How can I tell how much space is still available in a filesystem?
  • If my filesystem is NFS living on a ZFS storage array (or a Solaris system running NFS on ZFS), are the numbers shown by NFS and ZFS consistent?  How do I tell?
