Metadata Usage Report
+1Best answer by ShvetaD
Hi
We currently don’t have that ability on PE, though there is in internal KB that mentions a python script to get some metadata usage stats but I will need to confirm if that is only for internal use at this point.
Can you please share some details on why and what exactly are you interested in metadata usage of a cluster, so that I can discuss with relevant team and see if we can get some solution for this.
Thanks

+1Hello Shveta,
Thank you for answer, i getting following issue on cluster.
Warning : Fingerprinting Disabled
Impact : The advantages of deduplication are not available.
Cause : The metadata disk is used for metadata and data. Once the metadata portion on the disk exceeds the safety threshold AOS disables fingerprinting (deduplication) of future writes. Metadata sizes can increase due to a variety of reasons such as having too many snapshots, or simply because too much data is fingerprinted.
I can advice additional disks(SSD) for cluster but i have need a proof. Therefore necessary.
Thank you,
Osman
