I think you are correct. ‘zpool list’ shows raw space, ‘zfs list’ shows the space after reservation for parity, etc.. In a 10 disk raidz2 ~24% of the space is reserved for parity.
This website helps in calculating ZFS capacity. https://wintelguy.com/zfs-calc.pl <https://wintelguy.com/zfs-calc.pl>

So the zpool sizes as just 10 x 6.9T = 69T since zpool shows the total amount of disk space available to the pool. The usable space (which is what df is reporting) should be more like 0.8 x 69T = 55T. I am not sure about the discrepancy of 3T. Maybe that is due to some ZFS and/or Lustre overhead?

If there some mkfs.lustre or zpool option I missed in creating this? Is something just reporting slightly off and that space really is there?
