Considering this vdi list

s backup_data     2  1.0 TB  4.7 GB  195 GB 2013-07-04 08:52   c8d129

s backup_data     4  1.0 TB  115 GB  107 GB 2013-07-05 16:42   c8d12b
   2         lug08
  backup_data     0  1.0 TB  0.0 MB  222 GB 2013-07-08 08:33   c8d12c     2

how do I calculate the amount of space used the snapshots?
What I mean is that keeping snapshots should have an impact on the
cluster available size.
Soon or later I'll fill up the cluster if I don't remove snapshots.
I would like to monitor that.

I tried to delete older snapshot and check if anything was changing in
vdi info, and it didn't
