When it reports the available disk space in the Disk Overview, it seems to report it based on the partition that the symlink is on, not the partition that the symlink dereferences to. <br/> <br/> Found a related issue... <a href="http://www.couchbase.com/issues/browse/MB-1994">http://www.couchbase.com/issues/browse/MB-1994</a> MB-7307

Couchbase Console disk overview doesn't deref data dir symlink

Looks bad enough for fixing asap IMHO should be allowed for 2.0 given that it prevents compaction from happening Added to RN as: <br/> <br/> By default the image provided on Amazon EC2 of Couchbase Server may <br/> incorrectly report disk free space in the Couchbase <br/> Web Console. This occurs if your data directory is pointing to a symbolic link. Actually we merged a fix for this: <a href="http://review.couchbase.org/23003">http://review.couchbase.org/23003</a> Relabeled &quot;Fix&quot; + This has been fixed in 2.0. Added: This has been fixed in 2.0. Updated in Release Notes: <br/> <br/> In the past, if you used a symbolic link to reference a data directory for <br/> Couchbase Server, when the server determined remaining free disk space, it <br/> only found the free disk space for the partition that contained the symbolic link. <br/> This resulted in two issues: 1) incorrect information in the <br/> Couchbase Web Console, 2) more significantly, it would accidentally inhibit the <br/> data compaction process because of incorrect information free disk space. <br/> This has been fixed in 2.0.
