Vmware alerting high volume utilization.
Netapp provides 57% utilization, BUT...
Filesystem total used avail capacity
/vol/1_sys/ 2555GB 1461GB 282GB 57%
/vol/1_sys/.snapshot 0B 0B 0B 0% /1_sys/.snapshot
2.5TB capacity, 1.5TB used, but 282 GB available. It doesn't correlate to 57% usage

volume guarantee = none? Then you can't have more free space in your volume than what you have in the aggregate
