System volume 'root' usage is 100%
I've got a client with a Readynas 102, I just started getting this error message in my email today, every ten minutes: System volume 'root' usage is 100 %. This condition should not occur in normal...
Try
# touch /.os_update
# rn_shutdown -r
The above will get the NAS to do an OS Re-install which will re-install the OS but leave your data intact.
I would have recommended finding the log file(s) that filled the OS partition and overwriting them e.g.
# echo "" > /var/log/mylog.log
Clarification: Please note that an OS Re-install should only be done after space on the OS partition has been freed up. Doing an OS Re-install whilst the OS partition is very full may lead to further issues.
