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?

Model: ReadyNAS NV+ [X-RAID] Serial: 000da201881c Firmware: RAIDiator 4.1.15 [1.00a043] Memory: 1024 MB [2.5-3-3-7] 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.
