Volume: System volume root's usage is XX%.
Since adding new HDDs and resyncing, I've been getting the following error message: Volume: System volume root's usage is XX%. This condition should not occur in normal conditions. Contact techni...
For the sake of posterity, the device logs. I wonder if the ten-minute intervals are exacerbating the problem?

RN314, OS 6.4.1, home network.
About 1GB of the 4GB OS partition is being used by the LMS app alone.
# du -csh /var/lib/squeezeboxserver 691M /var/lib/squeezeboxserver 691M total # du -csh /usr/share/squeezeboxserver 307M /usr/share/squeezeboxserver 307M total
When apps store a lot of data on the OS partition that does contribute to getting error messages like this. There are a few other things as well that have contributed to the high root volume usage.
The usage going up then down then back up again would relate to log truncation/pruning presumably.
Most things that are not stored on the data volume would be stored on the root volume.
Thanks, mdgm-ntgr. Besides LMS, what exactly is taking up so much space? And is there anything that can be done about it?
I saw in one of the other threads the SSH shell command for moving the LMS cache to data. Is there anything else that I can do to get data out of rootfs?
For the record, the command for moving the LMS cache to data appears to be the following:
mv /var/lib/squeezeboxserver /data/squeezeboxserver
ln -s /data/squeezeboxserver /var/lib/squeezeboxserverIs it safe to do this, even though my 314 is in diagnostic mode?
That should work.
Provided the data volume is always mounted before you attempt to start LMS there shouldn't be an issue from that.
There are more things using up space on the root volume. Even with that moved across to the data volume, the root volume usage is still too high.
