Hi there,

I am running a proxmox server and was trying to start my VM when I was met with the error above. I was running no VMs at that point.

On the master node it says taht HD Space (root) is at 100% (836MB/836MB).

When I logged in to the command line, I ran the command: df -h
This pointed me towards that the file giving me issues was rpool/ROOT/pve-1 as it was 836MB used out of 836MB.

I navigated to this directory to see what files were causing it to be full, but there is no files in that location.

Please Help.

Thank you.
 
rpool/ROOT/pve-1 is the ZFS dataset mounted at / ..

Is there any way that I can grow that filesystem so that it is not full? Or are there files that I can delete from there which will give me room to start up my VMs again?

Thanks!
 
you have to investigate yourself what's taking up the space or whether your pool has more free space and that dataset has a quota..
