Lost space on HDD

Postby Vertigo500 » Wed Mar 23, 2011 3:29 am

My disk1 is 500Gb and i have two partitions, 50 for boot, and 450 for home.

Earlier, i used both for greyhole pool and boot disk for landing zone. I used the -going commend, as per instructions, and also moved manualy som files from the gh directory. Attic is emtyed (i belive). 

There is a lot of space unaccounted for. 10Gb+ missing on the smallest, and about 43Gb on the biggest. Where can it be, or what is it?

Sorry for my poor english. I am also a novice in Linux.



Storage Pool
Total - Used = Free + Attic = Possible
/var/hda/files/drives/drive3/gh: 458G - 115G = 320G + 0G = 320G
/var/hda/files/drives/drive4/gh: 1397G - 821G = 576G + 0G = 576G
/var/hda/files/drives/drive7/gh: 1375G - 1009G = 297G + 0G = 297G
==========================================
Total: 3231G - 1945G = 1193G + 0G = 1193G


From amahi
Pooled Location Total space Free space (%)
/ » 49.2 GB 29 GB 59%
/home 404.9 GB 361.8 GB 89%
/var/hda/files/drives/drive3 458.5 GB 343 GB 75%
/var/hda/files/drives/drive4 1.4 TB 576.5 GB 41%
/var/hda/files/drives/drive7 1.3 TB 366.4 GB 27%

The home disk is supposed to be empty.
And the \ disk is supposed to only have Fedora / Amahi

Why is there so much lost space?

Should i just reinstall? Or put both drives back in pool, and run empty attic, and hope for the best? Other suggestions?

Removing a drive from greyhole using -going will NOT remove the data that greyhole had stored on it.
Do to that, you'll need to delete the 'gh' folder found on the root of the partitions (/gh, and /home/gh).
Be sure you don't need the data anymore before deleting!
