It's never possible to fill the gaps completely since it's unlikely to find files to fit them exactly, this is why Defragger has the option "Defrag freespace (allow fragmentation)" filling the gaps at the expense of fragmentation.
If your files are scattered around the disk but not fragmented then you're making it harder for Windows to store files contiguously resulting in higher file fragmentation than if you defragged freespace.

After completion of the SOL Knossos gate the GTVA sends a small recon fleet to investigate. Upon exiting subspace they realize nothing is familiar. With no way to return they begin to colonize. The native factions, TEC, Advent and Vasari take notice of the intrusion and some believe they should be removed. The GTVA was not prepared for this eventuality and sent older Great War era vessels, and in order to survive they must scramble to construct the more advanced vessels from home. However a old foe may be lurking in the shadows.
This is a tribute mod to the Freespace games. All credit to the Volition team who made the original games, Interplay Entertainment for producing and to the guys over on the Hard light forums for the extra assets. If your a fan of Freespace I would look there for your Freespace itch, good stuff.
The completion of the Sol Knossos Gate was hailed as a major success. It was a feat not believed to be possible, the ability to go home for the first time in over four decades. Being part of the 7th fleet comprised of Terran and Vasudan Great War era vessels we were selected to go through the portal first. The selection of Great War era vessels was made to not create chaos when reconnecting with the homeworld with unfamiliar vessels. At least that was the plan.
Entering the gate was as simple and ordinary as any other jump I had done before. However, upon exiting the gate we soon realized we were in uncharted territory. With no way to return we began to settle into our new home. Scouts were sent through the systems and discovered a subspace portal network connecting to other systems. Given the relatively small size of the fleet sent through the gate we did not have the resources to secure many systems. It was determined we should split the fleet to secure resources.
Our efforts did not go unnoticed as an Envoy from the Trade Emergency Coalition arrived. We exchanged information and found we were no to different from one another. They warned us of splinter factions in the surrounding area, reminiscing of the Neo Terran Front and Hammer of Light we destroyed so many years ago. Not long after their departure we received a distress call from one our mining operations.
Reinforcements were sent and engaged a new foe, the Vasari. The Vasudans informed us of similar attacks on them but were able to capture a vessel. Interrogation of the crew revealed they were the Vasari, a nomadic race constantly moving, running from an unknown force. Intrigued offered them release in exchange for information on their pursuers. Analysis of the information provided little however some of the data was like a foe we faced before.
I'm sorry not to have reported me for several weeks. I had a lot of private matters around my ears. I'm sorry. I called the NTF Iceni over powered because when I was still able to play freespace 2, I used it as a ship that threw everything on your collar pretended to be stuck and destroy to act in memory of the half I'm sorry for the very overpowering answers and I wish you a good day

I have my VMware ESX datastore on a NetApp LUN. The volume associated with the LUN shows 26 GB of free space. However when I display the datastore freespace in VMware it shows 98 GB free. Can you help me understand the discrepancy.
I saw a similiar issue that was caused by the fact their was a previous datastore on a drive with the same device name. I had previously deleted a hardware RAID without deleting the datastore first. The datastore disappeared from the GUI tools and everything appeared to be fine.
Later, I re-created another RAID with the same device name (it was on the same location on the SCSI bus). It appeared with the size of the previously deleted RAID, and started causing extreme stability issues with the ESX Server.
Ahh ... I found your descrepency ...I'm still not sure why the numbers don't add up though.
According to the NetApp doc it seems you have a 250 GB volume with a 226 GB VMFS Partition on it. From the NetApp perspective, all 226 GB used by the VMFS Partition (your datastore) are 'in use' ... picture the datastore being a large file on the NetApp -- the NetApp doesn't have any insight into the structure of this file, so it reports it all as being 'used'. From the NetApp perspective, this is true ... the VMFS partition is consuming 226 GB of space on disk.
VMWare, on the other, is reporting 98 GB free in the datastore. That means, out of the 226 GB used for the datastore, 98 GB are free, or avaialble for .vmdk files.
A good way of seeing how much space the filer thinks a LUN is using, (when fractional reservation is still set to 100% and you have snapshots), try using "df -r". This will show the used space within the LUN, and as such, how much space the filer is reserving for overwrites (give or take).
So bottom line I should just go by what VMware is telling me? What (if anything) happens when/if the NetApp volume free % goes to zero? Right now it is decreasing by almost 1 G per day. It started doing that about 10 days ago and shows no signs of slowing down. Not sure what might be causing that.
Well, you really need to monitor both to be honest! If the VMFS datastore runs out of space your running Virtual Machines may be effected. If the filer volume runs out of space, you won't be able to take any more snapshots and it could effect the volumes performance. Best keep the volume below 90% for optimum performance.
If the volume is slowly growing, my guess is that you took a snapshot of the volume about 10 days ago. The rate of change from this snapshot and the active filesystem will grow at a steady rate. I can guess that the rate of change on your volume is about 1g per day
I just had another thought. My VMware datastore is currently set up to snapshot 4 times a day retaining 6 hourly and 2 nightly snapshots. This was set up by the consultant who installed my NetApp and VMware. Does anyone care to comment on the wisdom of taking snapshots of the VMware datastore?
You have a NetApp Snapshot, and your data is changing at a rate of about 1 G per day -- the space you're 'losing' is the space being consumed by the SnapShot ar vs it saves off changd blocks. I would recommend deleting the SnapShot ... I believe when you reach 0% on your Volume you will recieve an IO error.
I noticed that there was some substantial fragmentation in several cases so I ran xfs_fsr to defrag. Two of my VMs are rather large and I receive an "insufficient freespace" when attempting to defrag the partitions they are hosted on.
xfs_fsr defragments a file by copying it to a new temporary location and atomically swap the new (contiguous) file with the old one. This obviously means that it really need sufficient space to make the temporary copy (ie: at least as much free space as the file you are defragmenting).
xfs_fsr improves the layout of extents for each file by copying the entire file to a temporary location and then interchanging the data extents of the target and temporary files in an atomic manner. This method requires that enough free disk space be available to copy any given file and that the space be less fragmented than the original file. It also requires the owner of the file to have enough remaining filespace quota to do the copy on systems running quotas. xfs_fsr generates a warning message if space is not sufficient to improve the target file.
I am trying to use UWF overlay and I have it set to write the overlay to the disk instead of memory. In the docs it says I can use freespace passthrough feature if the overlay is on disk. This is supposed to let me use the additional space that is available on the disk for the overlay. However, it still caps out at 1024mb. Am I misunderstanding how this feature works?
Virtual environments rendered through kinesthetic haptic devices have frequency-dependent dynamic properties that affect perception. Previous studies on the perception of virtual walls have suggested that the properties not only of the wall, but also of the freespace with which it is paired, influence the perceived wall stiffness (bias) and discrimination thresholds. In this work, two experiments were undertaken to examine the effect of mass and damping properties in freespace on virtual wall stiffness classification. The results suggest that there may be alterations to classification performance under large changes in freespace conditions, but that small changes in mass and damping do not appear to significantly affect performance. These results suggest that additional study is needed to fully understand the effects of freespace properties on wall stiffness classification, which may differ from their effects on discrimination or bias.
