In the process of replicating data from a DD640 to DD2500 and we're hitting capacity issues. The Data Domain locks data and won't allow cleaning to have access when it is replicating.
So...
I cancelled replication and manually started cleaning. Last night there was no decrease in data size once cleaning finished. I'm running it again today manually. The commands of the day are:
#filesys clean stat
which displays the current condition of the cleaning, such as:
DD640# filesys clean status
Cleaning started at 2015/02/20 09:00:50: phase 1 of 10 (pre-enumeration)
2.5% complete, 1130 GiB free; time: phase 0:57:55, total 0:57:57
Which is nice, but when you're as retentive as me, you want real-time info on the condition. That's when we use:
filesys clean watch
That will present real-time, updating status of the cleaning job, such as:
DD640# filesys clean watch
Beginning 'filesys clean' monitoring. Use Control-C to stop monitoring.
Cleaning: phase 1 of 10 (pre-enumeration)
3.4% complete, 1130 GiB free; time: phase 1:24:26, total 1:24:28
I also allocated more resources to the cleaning in hope that it gets finished sooner than later. I'm not running any backup during the day to speak of, so I can afford to let those jobs take a back seat to the emergency maintenance.
More as it happens...
