| Abstract | Space management is the activity of monitoring and ensuring adequate free space on all volumes in a clustered storage system. Volumes that exceed used space limits are typically relieved by migrating a part of their data to other under utilized volumes. Without deduplication, space reclamation is simple as one has to just migrate as much data as the desired space reclamation. However, in deduped volumes there is no direct relation between the logical size of the file and the physical space occupied by it. Therefore, optimal space reclamation is hard as: a)migrating few files may produce little or zero bytes of free space, but still incur significant network costs. b)migrating a heavily shared file destroys the disk sharing relationships in that volume and increases the physical space consumption of that dataset. In this work, we have designed and built a fast and efficient tool Rangoli, that identifies the optimal set of files for space reclamation in a deduped environment. It can scale to millions of files and terabytes of data, running in tens of minutes. We show by experimenting on real world datasets, that alternate strategies such as those based on finding unique files or using MinHash, impact physical space consumption by a wide margin (up to 35 times) as compared to Rangoli. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
