Hey,

I'm running ESXI 6.5 and every few hours i get the error 'msg.hbacommon.outofspace:There is no more space for virtual disk 'XXXX.vmdk' and the VM stops. I can get the VM back up and running again by deleting a snapshot but the issue just happens again a few hours later.

Looking at the data store it shows nearly full but only about 700GB of the 1TB is provisioned. If i check the disk uage on the VM it is taking up no where near the amount ESXI says it is. about 200GB. I only have a couple of snapshots left so dont think I will be able to get the VM back running.

The disks allocated to the VM are Thin provisioned and this host only has 2 VMs the one with the issue and another that is running pfsense.

Info about the VM.

2 vmfs connected, one for OS(50GB) and another for data(600GB). the data one is the one that is filling up.

The VM is running rclone and has a couple of gdrives connected but I do not see how the data drive is filling up as anytime I have checked it is over 50% unused.

Anyone have any idea how to resolve
