kevr has joined #arpnetworks RandalSchwartz: I just deleted a bunch of snapshots from 2015 and freed up 50GB of my 120GB disk. :)
automatically-created snapshots can get out of hand sometimes. :) mjp_: damn that would have really slowed your system down? RandalSchwartz: Yeah, it was starting to get a bit full, and a bit slow.
I was down to my last 15GB or so
I'm down to 2048 snapshots... about half of how many I had before. mjp_: that.... is way to many haha ***: HAS_A_BANANA has joined #arpnetworks HAS_A_BANANA: automatically-created snapshots need automatic pruning ;) (i.e. I only keep 4 automated weekly snaps, the last 24 hours, the last 7 days etc) brycec: And yeah having a ton of snaps can cause zfs(1) and processes that use it (like the snapshot-taking process ;p) to really, really, reallllllly drag on. mercutio: isn't there normally automatic pruning as well, it's just that ther'es hourly, daily, weekly, monthly etc
which all start adding up mjp_: automatic.... if you schedule something to do it brycec: Built-in to ZFS? No there's nothing automatic. mercutio: nah built into scripts that auto snapshot brycec: It's up to whatever you've scheduled/configured/script you're using etc mercutio: say https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs-auto-snapshot brycec: And yes that one does. Not all do though. :p mercutio: ahh brycec: https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs-auto-snapshot/blob/master/src/zfs-auto-snapshot.sh#L65
eg: "were you lazy?" or "are you using FreeNAS?"
(last I checked, the auto-snapshotting script in FreeNAS has no "expiry") mercutio: or is it freebsd?
it's easy to have expiration and still have too many snaphots though brycec: freebsd itself doesn't ship with a zfs-auto-snapshot script but there is such a package. (as I recall. don't have a system readily available to check)
but the packaged script, which is the same name as zfsonlinux's although it's written in a different language entirely, does have pruning/expiry too mercutio: k, cool ***: qbit1 is now known as qbit

hazardous has joined #arpnetworks nathani: Hello from the other side
I am on my One Plus 3T brycec: Nice. I've been considering that very model for my next phone. Happy so far, nathani ? nathani: Kind of too early to tell, but so far so good
Snapchat works so that's great - stopped working on my HTC one M8 RandalSchwartz: yes, I was using zfs-auto-snapshot
except the "every other month" was set to something like "3 years" :)
I had forgotten that I needed to do some manual pruning. :)
Wow... I had thought my mail system was blowing, but now I realize it was my filesystem and all the file accesses. Things are zippy again!
Next problem: upgrading from FreeBSD 9.3 (past EOL!) to 10.x. ***: hazardous has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 258 seconds)
