How much space have you freed from SSD_R5_TP_01 ? If you've run unmap then the VV user space should reduce immediately yet it looks like you still have a lot of user space in there. This can't be reclaimed to the CPG until it is freed, so the system will only attempt to return the difference between user and reserved and if that is fragmented it will potentially only return slowly.
Run an unmap or similar e.g sdelete in the guest, because your reserved capacity appears to be your user size plus parity overhead @5+1, which would mean as far as the system is concerned the VV has no unused space in the written data, finally run a compact CPG to return space to the system.
Hi
Thanks for your feedback - we deleted about those 600GB that is the difference, I dont think its the raid overhead? I did not think "showvv -s" incuded the raid overhead.. This is what it shows if i specifiy showvv with showing raw space, we have run the vmware unmap command after storage vmotioning them..
showvv -r
