Description

We talked at some point about this, maybe looking at the zfs dataset and free space, not the same as the space inventory that Nexus and or Sled Agent keeps.

[jmc] there are at least two areas to consider here: reservations (managed in Nexus based on a nominal capacity), and actual usage/capacity (measured in Crucible and/or the Sled Agent)
