Dear Ido,

Thank you for your response, but I don't have a usage question. I've read through all of the information on managing datasets and it seems to be a calculation error on Galaxy. I'm hoping that an admin can recalculate my disk usage as described here (https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/DiskQuotas?action=show&redirect=Admin%2FDisk+Quotas) and this will fix the problem. (As far as I can tell, this is something I can't do myself, so apologies if I'm mistaken on this.)

Regards,

Jess

I deleted all of those jobs (most of which hadn't started execution), and then went back and deleted each one permanently, and my usage went back down to 7%. I requested a few jobs which should have produced smaller files, and they paused straight after starting. When I checked back, I was suddenly apparently using 597GB of disk space despite the size on disk of each of my histories adding up to <25GB. I've permanently deleted everything created since the initial problems and still my usage is recorded as 597GB. On Trello, there's a bug report that currently running jobs in deleted histories don't stop execution. Possibly my problem is due to the same bug, despite all the tasks being purged and not recoverable.
