    The root volume has been full due to apps being installed on it. Also, one thing that might have added on the issue is with Quotas being enabled it has been disabled now.

     

    FS check has been done, kindly see if there are still issues after the reboot.

Root volume has 4GB total, there won't be any way to allocate a larger space at least to my knowledge and if there is it is not supported.

 

Usually deleting the logs that went to the root or moving the apps to a specified folder /apps should help release some space for the root volume.

Correct.  But there are other options - for instance installing the packages to /apps (which is actually the .apps folder of the data volume).

 

You can also copy folders to the data volume, and create a soft link on the OS partition to that folder.
