No, we weren’t using snapshots.

This is from a location I have just moved from so I can’t do any active investigation now, but I am curious.

In the end we had a power outage and the system was fine on reboot.

Dear All,



This has happened more than once with both 4.2.3 and 5.0. The instances may not be related.



In the first instance, usage was high (over 90%) and so users were encouraged to delete files. One user deleted a considerable number of files equal to around 10% of the total storage. Reported usage did not fall. There were not obviously any waiters. Has anyone seen anything similar?

Regards
