RN516. Volume: System volume root's usage is 81%
I'm running an RN516 on OS 6.5.1 with 6x 6TB WD RED's.
Out of the blue I get a "Volume: System volume root's usage is 81%" error.
I'm not running *any* 3rd party apps and only use the unit ...
Hello tijgert,
It seems you have posted the same problem twice. Please continue at https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/RN516-Volume-System-volume-root-s-usage-is-81/m-p/1140518#M115751

This is really hard to follow, because your cut/paste lost all the line breaks.
You do need to log in as root, not admin - otherwise there are files/folders you won't be able to look at. So try again using root as the username, and the NAS admin password for the password.
Hello Sir,
I don't know how you're looking at my post, but it is showing normal as a listing on a grey background with all the line breaks when pulling up the page. Only when looking at your reply do I see one big jumble of symbols.
May I suggest you view it regurlarly? No one else seems to be having the problem you are.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Ray

This is not my problem. You started two threads as noted above This one has bad formatting. The other one does not.
Hello, and thanks for the friendly tone.
Obviously it's not your problem, but if I don't seem to understand what you mean you cold always try to explain it a little.
From my reply you could clearly deduct that I was unaware of the second thread.
If you look at the time stamp of the two threads you'll see that they were both started at the exact same time. You could've concluded that a thread was started without the proper formatting, as you rightfully complained about and of which I was aware, but that the succesfull attempt at fixing that formatting resulted in advertently starting a new thread.
Obviously this was not meant to happen, but at the time I was having connectivity issues while I was abroad and this seems to be the result. Had I been aware of this I would've edited the thread and emptied it to avoid the discussion we are having now.I do apologize and wholeheartedly wish this thread to die and never be heard from again. Thanks for the help.
Cheers.
Fair enough. Locking this thread.
