Large Filesystem Overhead usage

Hey Gang,

Currently my filesystem overhead is ~50% of my current footprint in my VSAN deployment.  ~200G taken up by VM's and FS Overhead is ~220G.  Currently, I'm running a hybrid deployment with FTT = 1, with the execption of some test VM's where FTT = 0.

My question is what does File System Overhead consist and how do I predict its growth?

Any advice or direction would be much appreciated!

Good morning, there have been few threads on this.  6.2 - Filesystem overhead is huge ?? for example.

Basically, something is wrong; call support.  Thank you, Zach.
