not sure why i did not check this before but looks like the trash is my problem, node say 0 trash but looks like there is many in… started to delete this (rm -rf trash) takes some time, will report when done how much it was
You shouldn’t remove trash yourself, you will not have pieces older than 7 days here anyway independently of what’s stored in your database.
The manual deletion of the trash may lead to a disqualification, if the satellite would request to restore data and would try to audit it.
I’m close to delete the whole node, no big deal if get disqualified
But this node had 0 trash according to webui 0 bytes… 300GB are not 0 bytes another “scam” where we not get paid for used space? Or did I get it wrong that trash is not paid?
the owner of the files have to choose pay for the data in trash or delete without move to trash and have no option to recover, but this is a bad joke imo…
If I would not like “free” ~50$/month I would shutdown all nodes I guess
Why the space is used does not matter for me it is used and I want to get paid for it
For sure there could be 2 options for the customers when they delete files:
Delete data and move to trash but pay the trash
Delete data without trash (no way to recover) no need to pay for trash as there is no trash
Or u would like if some smart brains put all data in trash to not pay for it and recover it later… in worst case u could have a full “trash” node and not earn anything
This issue pertains to the operation of Bloom filters, which theoretically can lead to the deletion of incorrect data. To mitigate this risk, data is initially moved to the trash folder. If no issues arise, this data will then be permanently deleted after 7 days.
Like the others said if you don’t want to be not paid for trash, you can have the filewalker delete pieces instead of moving to trash. But imo this past week is a bit of an anomaly with regards to trash as the free tier was removed.
