Abstract
A data storage system tracks liability and insurance for an internal file system, liability being a number of slices needed to store file system data, insurance being a number of slices allowed to be consumed. A reserve of un-provisioned insurance is maintained from which slices are provisioned to the file system for use in storing file system data without immediate requirement for increasing the insurance. Slices are provisioned to the file system from the reserve of un-provisioned insurance based on a window criteria and a space criteria, the window criteria being that a number of free windows is less than a free window threshold, the space criteria being that a number of currently provisioned slices is less than a maximum allowed slices, which includes an overprovisioning factor applied to the primary file size to allow for growth of the primary file without immediate requirement for increasing provisioned insurance.
