Is it possible to get separate category for not cleaned so cold after trash.
this is Data that was 7 days in trash and that is not deleted yet, that we can know how much need to clear in node.
this will help monitor nodes, for how much cleaning work need to be done and may be adjustments need to be made.
For what? It will happen eventually. If you want to speed-up, you can reduce the threshold and regulate a number of parallel compactions.
I can’t wait for the day… when I have a full node and actually have to worry about trash taking up space that could be making me money…
…maybe in a couple more years

yes, but if the norm is that trash will be deleted after 7 days and it does not, then it would be what i call a bug
or was it 2 weeks wait time?
anyways how do we set that treshhold so the trash gets deleted if it was not deleted automatic after the time it should have been deleted?
This was in the old days of filestore. With hashstore trash can only be deleted on compaction. So it might stay from 7 days to forever.
Looks like WIP possibly

then i most likely are on hashstore, i will give it one more week
but if trash is not deleted by then i must be on hashstore right? can i start compaction? or is that also automatic?
Everything is automatic.
On piecestore every few days a new batch of data gets flagged as trash, and seven days later automatically erased from disk. On hashstore it gets flagged as trash the same way… still has the week delay.. then a job automatically runs that decides when compaction should happen to which logs (which is when their trash is erased from disk).
Running a Storj node should consume basically none of your time once you set it up. It upgrades itself, stores new data, deletes old data - and you don’t have to touch it. Ignore it unless you receive an email saying your node is offline

yeah, i know i’m a pain in the rear
but what if i discover that my trash amount stays the same for say 3-4 weeks and i don’t get new data? just a thought
That may be a problem. It’s probably completely normal. Some months you get a bit of new data… and delete about the same amount… and your node doesn’t seem to grow. Some months it may shrink. Normally it goes up a bit every month. But you’ll always have trash (it seems to hover around 5-15%).
When you install a new node: it’s normal to stress about it initially: to watch what it does every day or week. But first it vets… then goes through the 9-month withholding… so you’re not really coasting with it until about a year. By then you only notice the payouts: and check the UI every 3 months or so to see if it has been growing . Good Luck!

also when there is overuse in play?
the 3 other nodes are fine… only the first one seems to be out of what a bit
btw i know the vetting too, happend within 3 days for the first one, the rest are still behind on that part
Used plus Trash minus Allocated = Overused.
Allocated minus Trash minus Used = Free (but including potentially uncompacted garbage).
The multi-node dashboard displays free space, including garbage as used (and not paid), but Allocated minus Used (paid) minus Trash != Free (likely choosing the minimum between the calculated free space and the free space on the disk). However, this is what it reports to the satellites.
There is no uncompacted garbage metric, which leads to confusion on both dashboards.
