There's 2.5 terabytes free on the server's disk array so we should be set for a few more months at least. ;)
That reads fine and the experience is quite fast. Thanks for the work! What I don't understand is why Ganglia only shows ~ 3.3 TB of disk_total while there should be about 4.8 TB.
The RAID eats up some of the raw disks' space with the redundancy. Either that or I've lost track of something. ;)
When we rearrange the image storage system there should be much less need to hit the disk over NFS, so that should go down in the future to make further room for real growth.
Can I read something about that planned rearrange anywhere?
There's some notes scribbled at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/1.6_image_storage
