ReadyNAS 104 System volume root's usage is 100% unable to start SSH
Hello,my ReadyNAS 104 system (firmware 6.5.0) has begun throwing an error message in the logs that report "Volume: System volume root's usage is 100%. This condition should not occur in normal condi...
Thanks for the reply mdgm. Yes, from the admin site, the services that are running are: AFP, ReadyDLNA, RSync, UPnP, HTTP and HTTPS. I tried to disable some of these also, but receive the same "unable to start or modify service" message.
The only app that is installed is Plex Media Server (v 0.9.12.8.1362). It shows as "off". I tried to remove it, but the log reported "System: Cannot uninstall application Plex Media Server."
If you can't enable SSH access due to the volume issue, it would require Netgear support to access the NAS in a low level debug mode. They should be able to deal with this problem that way.
Did you try to reach out to them?
Thanks for the information Hopchen. No, I have not yet opened a ticket with them, but that may be the best course. Doesn't sound like many other choices besides that or the factory reset / restore from backup route.
Yeah, but reset/restore of the entire NAS seems like a heavy-handed approach to something that is "relatively" harmless.
It is just a problem with OS. Your data is likely fine. It is probably an app that caused this, by adding data to the wrong location.
Anyhow, I suggest you reach out to support on this one.
Cheers
Good point, thanks Hopchen!
