You can view the percentage of disk space saved by block sharing on a volume containing FlexClone files and FlexClone LUNs. You might do this as part of capacity planning.

Steps

  1. View the space saving achieved due to FlexClone files and FlexClone LUNs:

    volume show -volume <vol_name> -vserver <SVM> -fields used, sis-space-saved, dedupe-space-saved, compression-space-saved
    Note

    If you run this command on a deduplication-enabled FlexVol volume, you can view the space saved by both deduplication and FlexClone files and LUNs.
