yes, huge deploy but not that seamless.

1. i had a filevault related corruption issue, the disk was eating itself up thinking it was encrypting... don't have the apple discussion link at hand.

2. time machine hidden snapshot, "disk full" issues. it's a major pita for me that is not possible to turn off local snapshots.

it's a major pita for me that is not possible to turn off local snapshots.

Try this terminal command:

   sudo tmutil disablelocal

Edit: I'm still on Sierra. Someone else mentioned that HS removed that. But also pointed to: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/solution-reclaim-storag...

Good luck!
