A customer asked me about this and I see the same thing in my environment. Does anyone know what the volume size in the administration console refers to? It is not the same as the actual size of the folder on disk.

Do you refer to the current size for each volume or the current size which display in the  repository page for Web Administration Console? The current size for each volume should be the same as the files in the folder of the volume.

Are we talking about something like the screenshot below with the Admin Console matching the Size value?

See these threads on why the size on disk is not always accurately matching the size of the folder.

I am referring to the size displayed in the administration console vs the size on disk reported by windows.

Check the recycle bin in the Admin Console, it's probably deleted documents.

Purged all items from the recycle bin. It remains the same.

The server does not delete documents from disk immediately, it does it on a background thread. Did you purge the recycle bins for all users?

That was it, it just took awhile to show the change. Thanks!

Is there some way to either trigger this manually or know when it'll run? We have a customer working at purging a large amount of data and would find the answer valuable.

The deleter thread starts 60 seconds after the server starts and runs every 10 minutes. If it ran maintenance operations in the last 24 hours, it will skip the run. So, depending on your timing, it could be up to a whole day until you see the deleted documents disappear from disk.

This design is for performance reasons as maintenance operations can slow down the system. The maintenance window is configurable. Let me know if you need to tweak it.

@████████  How do you change/configure the maintenance window? Thanks

 

Edit - Scratch that, found it in repository settings:-
