ZFS pool question

I created a pool the other day. I created a 10 gig files just for a test, then deleted it.

I proceeded to create a few files systems. But for some reason the pool shows 10% full, but the files systems are both at 1%? Both files systems share the same pool.

When I ls -al the pool I just see the file systems.

How can I remove the file I created from the other day?

Thanks

If I just use zfs list all
Code:
NAME               USED  AVAIL  REFER  MOUNTPOINT
glowpool          29.7G   238G  26.6G  /glowpool
glowpool/glows     234M   238G   234M  /glowpool/glows
glowpool/gorking  2.90G   238G  2.90G  /glowpool/gorking

If my previous command didn't work, try this:
Code:
zfs list -t filesystem,snapshot,volume

The thing is you probably have snapshot of that deleted file somewhere and that is what consumes space.

It might be possible that the files you deleted are still open by some process. Alternatively, you might have the glows or gorking mounts being at the same time directories where files are hidden (overlay mount).
