Answer

The command displays the unique bytes used by the file (bytes that are not shared with any other file in the volume due to deduplication or FlexClone files) in kilobytes.

Example:

::> vol fileshow-disk-usage -vserver vs01 --path/vol/cinder1/snapshot-853d7c30

Vserver      Total            Unique             Path
--------     -----            ------             -------
vs01         20115MB          133MB              /vol/cinder1/snapshot-853d7c30
