Compact Pool

Description

Pool compaction is periodically done automatically in the background. If the pool does not contain data, it is reclaimed in its entirety and unassigned from its current storage domain. This makes the pool available for allocation to any storage domain. If the pool cannot be reclaimed in its entirety, its usage level is checked, and data that is eligible for deletion is deleted as necessary to compact the pool so that it has space for new data.

Use this request to force a compaction to be scheduled immediately for a specified pool, without having to wait for the automatic, periodic scheduling.

Requests

Syntax
