Hello all,
I have been looking in the forum but I have not found information. In my job we are using Nutanix objects, one of the buckets shows 450 TB of usage space on Nutanix, but when I review on veeam the backup software it only shows 90 TB. Is there an issue with this space not being reclaimed?, on a previous post, I found ReFS takes some time to free up space and show the proper amount.
I hope you can shed some light on.

Hi,
Two things come to mind here:
This is speculation as I’ve not seen your environment, nor do I have a Nutanix objects setup available to test, but it’s common things with object storage I’m aware of
+21There are a few things like deduplication and block sizing within your job. Veeam does a good job when sending backups to object.

+6Nutanix uses a curator process scan to delete objects see link below for more details. This can take a while based on the schedule scans,
This KB gives you a good explanation - https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA03200000098CQCAY
If you have any issues I would contact Nutanix support to see if there are any corruption issues😊
