Running iwfsshrink

Rainbow_Warrior

Kia Ora,
due to space problems on our TeamSite backing-store, I am going to try running iwfsshrink on it.
Currently we have about 320 branches and disk usage is:
94824402 90436809 3439349 97% /ecmp/ecm/iw-store

Has anyone had experience at running iwfsshrink?
How long did it take? (on what size?)
And what is the impact on users? (The manual didn't say anything, so I assume TS is up, but can users work?)

Thanks in advance

iwfsshrink has limited impact on users - it is run while TS is up.
It can take a while to finish running - you can get some idea of where it is by periodically running iwfsshrink status and looking at the output.

Because you have less than 10% of the disk free - you may need to tweak the iw.cfg threshhold settings so that TS will remain up while iwfsshrink does its job - otherwise TS will freeze the backing store and iwfsshrink will not be able to remove the duplicate data.
