I'm experiencing the same Resilio issue now. I'm able to ssh into the device. From there I'm not sure where to turn. I want to delete the Resilio directory and start over. I've removed the app via the GUI but that does not delete the directory. Its a new unit so I'm not worried about crashing it. Thanks in advance.

I think you can just delete the Resilio folder
Are you seeing a lot of space usage in /var/cache and /var/log?

You could of course do a factory reset, and rebuild everything from scratch. Overkill, but if you aren't in a hurry it has the advantage of cleaning out everything.

I did a restore as I couldn't figure out how to delete the bloated directory via SSH. Now I'm getting messages warning me that less than 20% of media capacity is free. What is that? I created a directory on a new share within the 2TB volume. The sync share is less than 70GB.

That suggests that the 4GB root volume is getting full.
Sounds like you've done some of the same things that you did last time.
