Storage on Stormshear
When we created extra partition for ''arcology'' ZFS pool on Ysul and ''wharf'' LVM group on Dwellers, we have underestimated the overhead of the VMs.
| Server | Task | Description | Size |
| Ysul | - | Main hard disk | 400 G |
| Ysul | T150 | ZFS arcology | 100 G |
| Dwellers | - | Main hard disk | 100 G |
| Dwellers | T166 | Wharf for Docker | 200 G |
| Total | . | . | 800 G |
But we have some overhead. For example, it seems Ysul has snapshots enabled (I think this were a safety measure to handle T293), as we have this:
-rw------- 1 root root 94.3G Aug 2 13:07 Ysul-000001-delta.vmdk
-rw------- 1 root root 3.5G Apr 8 19:08 Ysul-Snapshot1.vmsn
-rw------- 1 root root 7.8G Aug 2 13:03 Ysul-zfspool-000001-delta.vmdk
Ysul arcology
We don't need so much space, as we currently use it for jails and poudriere.

Plans
- Destroy the 100G arcology ZFS pool and recreate it on a 25G storage
- Disable snapshot on Ysul - I totally know it's a good idea as it's also a dev machine, and so not totally instrumentable, but we don't have the hard disk to do that. A proper backup strategy and a Tahoe grid is needed.
