Hi ,
      We have been using Advfs clones to do our backups for sometime .
We experienced a strange problem off late. The file system on which our database
(mysql) was runing crossed the magic 90 % mark and then when I tried to create
a clone using "clonefset" the clone did create but df output showed 100 % full
and the clones returned io errors when we tried to access them .
Could anybody point me to a safe limit ?
How much space do these clones really use ?

The system in question is a hard partitioned GS320 running 5.1A pk4 .

Any pointers
Thanks
