Dear all, I would like to know the actual size that the virtual machine is used. I found that there is a field to show "actual size". But the number is not right. I entered the server and type df -h. The storage size of the server is about 30GB but the actual size field shows 60 GB.

Hello~ i type this command on the running vm, not the hypervisor ( ovirt node).

Hello, thank you for helping me. On the storage domain size: Alias: host1 Disk: 1 Template: Blank Virtual Size: 30 GB Actual Size: 13 GB Creation Date: Jan 29,2018 11:22:54 AM On the server size: # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg01-root 10G 7.2G 2.9G 72% / devtmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev tmpfs 1.9G 4.0K 1.9G 1% /dev/shm tmpfs 1.9G 17M 1.9G 1% /run tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/sda1 1014M 188M 827M 19% /boot /dev/mapper/vg01-var 15G 996M 15G 7% /var XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:/nfs_share 249G 96G 141G 41% /mnt/nfs_share tmpfs 379M 0 379M 0% /run/user/0 # parted -l /dev/[sv]d[a-z] | grep ^Disk Disk /dev/sda: 32.2GB Disk Flags: Disk /dev/mapper/vg01-var: 16.1GB Disk Flags: Disk /dev/mapper/vg01-swap: 2147MB Disk Flags: Disk /dev/mapper/vg01-root: 10.7GB Disk Flags: # It still not the same. Also, do you know the upper limitation for thin provision? For example, if i allocated 30 GB to the hosts, what is the upper limitation that the host can use?
