Can't access data disk full

I have an NV+ that I've been using for years. I'm not sure how the data got away from me, but the volumes and shares are full to capacity.

 

I can get into the admin console, but I can't mount any of my shares so that I can make some breathing room. 

 

Any ideas? Thanks.

    Did you have ssh enabled?  

     

    Also, what firmware are you running?

     

    Often your symptoms are a result of the OS partition becomng full, not the data volume.  Are you sure your data volume is full?

      I'm not sure if ssh is turned on, but when I just logged into the cosole the disk capacity is only at 23%. It was at 100%. I have no idea what is going on.

       

      How can the OS partition become full? How can I fix it?

        The OS partition on your NAS is 2 GB.  Causes for a full OS partition include a runaway log, a large ReadyDLNA cache, or a third party add-on that stores data on the OS partition.

         

        -do you have ReadyDLNA or Remote enabled?

        -what add-ons are installed?

         

        I suggest backing up your data w/o delay, and then we can try to fix the problem.
