Datastore Free Size incorrect

[rezeq1989]

I have IBM-System X 3755 M3 server and installed on it ESXi 5.1 server, there is 4 disks each one 300 GB and I make it as RAID 5 to become the Datastore for ESXi server is 830 GB.

     - I created 7 VMs, total size for them are 300 GB, is supposed to have almost 530 GB free size but there are only 168 GB free size.

I have converted all VMs from Lazey Thick to Thin, but the problem still.

when check on the size through the VSPhere Client the total size is 830 GB and used is 667 GB and free size is 168 GB, but when adding the amount of used storage for all the VMs ~=300 GB.

There is any commands or any soluation to resolve this issue?

Did you already click the "Refresh..." link. VMware does not update the used/free space on the fly.

I'd suggest you use the Datastore Browser to see whether the files shown there add up to the correct sum. Maybe there are some additional folder/files which are not shown in the host's inventory!?

Yes, I used Vmware converter to change from Thick to Thin.

In Datastore Browse no additional files or folder, and I added the size of each VMs correctly.
