System volume 'root' usage is 100 %
I was wondering what can I delete under the /var/ folder? its taking up around 700MB of space and my admin page is not loading anymore.
How full is the OS partition? There are other causes for your issue, and it seems likely that a full OS is not your issue.
What apps do you have installed on the NAS? Can you post the results of du /var/lib -h -d 1
/Dev/md0 is maxed out at 100%.
It looks like /Var/Lib is only 528M. The only apps i have is Plex at 2.6GB and Tautulli at around 300M
You have some stuff in /var/lib that I don't, but the main difference in the size is in clamav - I have that turned off.
If you aren't seeing where the space has gone, then it likely is hiding underneath a mount point.
Try mount /dev/md0 /mnt and then look in /mnt. Then you'll only see what is actually stored there. When finished, do a cd // and then umount /mnt
Not sure what else I can delete from here. I did nuke that /var/calmav and im down to 89%. Im assuming doing an OS reinstall would be too risky with that little of space still. The admin page is working now at least, but I would like to get the space down some more.
