The mystery of the phantom persistent SSD store

danielrosehill

I'm running into a quote limit in my GKE instance.

I thought that seemed a bit off so I went to see what was throwing up the error and saw this:

According to Compute Engine, I'm using 458GB of storage. The only problem is ... I can't find it anywhere!

Persistent storage on this instance is a single humble 8GB volume.

Checked everywhere else conceivable under my Google Cloud account ... no other projects .... nothing under storage.

Is there any way to drill down into this alert a little to try find where the mystery SSD lives?

have you tried to look at disks from Asset Inventory?

compute.googleapis.com/Disk
Returns zonal and regional disks in the search and analysis APIs, and only zonal disks in the list, export, query, and monitor APIs.
