can also resize swap or data patition or logical volumes and increase pve-root (I have a noob thread going with instructions)..

Thanks Zippy do you have a link for the noob thread please i will have a read. the large logs have started since i have been playing round with gpu pass-through, i have it working fine on a windows 10 vm with a amd hd6450 with no problems. i have been trying to get it working with a nvidia 1070 the vm detects the card when i remote desktop in and i have installed the drivers but seems to crash, or be working very slow then when i reboot the vm the screen connected to card flickers and then jumps back to proxmox shell screen. i did get the 1070 to work but then when i noticed the /dev/mapper/pve-root 29G 29G 0 100% / i deleted the temp files rebooted server and now the 1070 pass through has stoped working not sure were i am going wrong.

did you get a solution ? i am facing the same problem... gpu passthrough makes the storage full

change log level and delete old logs you dont need... I had gigs of logs going that killed root for some reason the default was to store to root partition... so I ended up just killing the node... restore to other node any vm I need... migrate all over that I could and restore from replicas on other nodes then I reinstalled PM on the troubled nodes and made sure to add more space for Root and fixed log locations... anyhow it was a pinta for months trying to sort it all out... best thing I did was to just save everything and migrate over or restore to other nodes and then kill the whole hosed up node and reinstall with newest. Total waste of time but I have stable it working great now without old log files and only elevated log levels when needed... As for GPU passthrough - check where logs are being stored - change it... if that is all the issue is for you.. anyhow - the defaults for base PM install is not enough the way it is setup... 2 cents
