Volume: System volume root's usage is 83%. This condition should not occur under normal conditions.
Hi all, Got a strange warning about 83% fullsystem root. Rebooted because RNnas was crashed/hung. Btw, why isnt rootfs showing up any more? Logged in via ssh and mounted root as mnt. Did: du...
Hi all and thanks for all the ideas.....
I deleted mnt btw...... Nothing works now...... :smileylol:
Just kidding, understood that you missed the part about mounting in mnt.
Anyway, found the issue, update to plex that did some buffering into /var/tmp !!
Problem solved by installing new version of plex.
Now i'm back to 35% in os partition.
Kudos to rn_enthusiast and StephenB !
ps, i select my own post as solution... :-)

I think rn_enthusiast missed this bit. Definitely don't delete stuff in /mnt!
The purpose of mounting root as /mnt is to allow you to search the OS partition itself (seeing what is actually in /apps and other mount points). Your commands to explore the space should have been done in /mnt.
As rn_enthusiast says, you need to analyze free space and unallocated space using btrfs tools.

Not completely sure what you mean by this. But when you first log into the NAS, you are in /root - which only has hidden files. If you then enter cd // you will see the usual folders. This is not new behavior.
Ahh yes I missed that part. Thanks for pointing out :)
