[Ocfs2-users] Missing over 100GB of disk space

[Colin.Farley at ecarecenters.com]

Thanks for the reply.  So we would need a 4k block size and 4k cluster size
since some of these files are rather small.  I guess there is no way to
change this without formatting and starting again?

Thanks again,

Colin,

space for files are allocated in cluster units. A 64k block is allocated
even if the file is few bytes. You might want to consider lower cluster
size if the file are small.

thanks,
