The message is referring to the data volume.
How much of the volume capacity are you using?
Are there any apps installed?
If it is a similar problem it'll probably require remote access.

If btsizer has checked btrfs.log and the data volume is less than 70% full then it could well be the root volume.
If it is the root volume it can be fixed using SSH. It's a matter of determining what's using lots of space of the root volume and then dealing with it appropriately.

Howdy, details from btrfs.log and screenshots showing volume use attached.

That's very conclusive. You're using close to 3GB of the 4GB capacity of the root volume

Plus the first data volume is also very full.
So there are two things to take care of.

Is there a utility I can run that allows me to care for disk utilization? Should I be attempting something along the lines of balancing data volumes?
I can do some searches for command line root cleanup but anything you can suggest would be helpful to get me started.Thanks.
