Failed backup leads to unresponsive proxmox?

My proxmox server makes its backup to a NAS (its mounted as SMB), this works marvelous normally. Last night the drive got full, but now my proxmox server has become unrepsonsive. The VM's themselves work, but i cant access the web interface, and ssh'ing into the hypervisor doesnt work either. Is this normal or did i misconfigure something?

I had to restart the whole server to get access to it again.

Hi,

The full SMB storage impacted the pvestatd daemon, which can cause the Proxmox VE Web UI to become unresponsive. I would check the syslog around the backup time.

I had to restart the whole server to get access to it again.
You can also restart the pvestatd and pveproxy services.
