ZFS does not release space even after deleting application log files in a non-global zone
Hi Guys,
I have a non-global zone in which has apache application on it. There is a ZFS filesystem where the app saves the log. Even after deleting the logfiles I dont see the space being freed up. There are no snapshots or anything at all
The log files are likely still open by apache, thus even unlinked, their data is still stored on the file system. This would happen with other file systems than ZFS. You should have blanked their content before removing them, as with:
Thanks for responding @jlliagre and @radoulov (bouncing apache or unmounting and mounting zfs fs are last options for me)...
I usually truncate the file after making a copy, but someone before me deleted the file directly. Now, when I do du -skh /export/home/ajb it shows around 70M but df and zfs list shows about 9.7g which is 100%. I have seen this discrepancy between du and df in UFS for which I use the following solution
Sorry it wont let me post a link to the source, for the source please google for
Discrepancies Between df And du Outputs
But I don't know if that'll work for a zfs filesystem.... Do you know any procedure like the one above where I can truncate the links which are holding up the space?
Thanks for the input guys, we went the safest route by bouncing Apache and it cleared the issue. Regarding truncating linked file, I will keep that in mind and try it next time.
