    There's your issue... /mnt/data should be empty.

    Do you have replicate jobs running? It's common that it pushes data to /data even though the data volume is not mounted, filling up the OS volume.

    Then, once the data volume is mounted on /data, you can no longer see what was in the folder itself but the OS volume is still full.

    As you have temporarily mounted the OS volume back to /mnt, you should check what's in /mnt/data and clear it to free up space on your OS volume. WARNING: Be careful what you're doing, you want to clear /mnt/data, NOT /data (where your actual data volume is mounted)!
