Is it possible to verify space savings on StorageGRID when compression is enabled?
Applies to
- NetApp StorageGRID
- NetApp StorageGRID appliance
Answer
No, StorageGRID is not having a mechanism to check physical space savings after compression is enabled.
- The grid has no knowledge of original object size vs. size on disk
- The compression is only visible in the global view but not in the tenant view
- Appliance is only aware of space consumed and reports accordingly
