Can't access data disk full
I have an NV+ that I've been using for years. I'm not sure how the data got away from me, but the volumes and shares are full to capacity. I can get into the admin console, but I can't mount any ...
Did you have ssh enabled?
Also, what firmware are you running?
Often your symptoms are a result of the OS partition becomng full, not the data volume. Are you sure your data volume is full?
| Model: | ReadyNAS NV+ [X-RAID] |
| Serial: | 000da201881c |
| Firmware: | RAIDiator 4.1.15 [1.00a043] |
| Memory: | 1024 MB [2.5-3-3-7] |
I'm not sure if ssh is turned on, but when I just logged into the cosole the disk capacity is only at 23%. It was at 100%. I have no idea what is going on.
How can the OS partition become full? How can I fix it?

The OS partition on your NAS is 2 GB. Causes for a full OS partition include a runaway log, a large ReadyDLNA cache, or a third party add-on that stores data on the OS partition.
-do you have ReadyDLNA or Remote enabled?
-what add-ons are installed?
I suggest backing up your data w/o delay, and then we can try to fix the problem.
Thanks Steven,
I've turned off all add-ons (I wasn't using them, but two were active). I also have a clean backup of everything. I also shut down home users that I wasn't using either.

One approach is to do a factory reset, and restore the data from your backup. That's probably what I'd do w/o ssh.
Another is to try deleting the logs (don't download them), and see if things stabilize.
