Hi Zoltan

Are the  old server numbers from export time or current time?  If current time 
you may have had some 5 million small files expire in the interim.

Cheers

Subject: [ADSM-L] Huge differences in file count after exporting node to a 
different server

I am curious if anyone has seen anything like this.

A node was exported (filedata=all) from one server to another (all servers
are 7.1.7.300 RHEL)

After successful completion (took a week due to 6TB+ to process) and
copypool backups on the new server, the Total Occupancy counts are the same
(13.52TB).  However, the file counts are waaay off (original=17,561,816 vs
copy=12,471,862)

There haven't been any backups performed to either the original (since the
export) or new node. Policies are the same on both servers and even if they
weren't, that wouldn't explain the same occupancy size/total.

Neither server runs dedup (DISK based storage volumes).

Any thoughts?
