I recently installed a few LXCs. I am not sure what I did wrong my I started getting this unable to initialize AptPkg::Cache (500) error in shell. It said my disk is full and when I checked the LVM disk it It showed that my disk was 93% full. My Proxmox drive is 256 GB SSD and all my VMs and LXCs are installed on a separate 1TB NVME, so I am not sure what is the issue here,
I rebooted the system and tried to search for issues. Found a few old threads but nothing much useful as I am totally new to Linux.
Anyway, things started to work and I could use shell. I was thinking I will post my issue here but now another issue popped up. MY GUI keeps on saying "Login failed. Please try again". Just to be sure I tried using the Proxmox VE realm as well but no respite. I am able to use same details to login using ssh.
Please help me how to solve these issues.
Thanks!

An update: The login failed at least 20 times and after posting this I tried again with the same saved password and it logged me in. From what I see 8 out of my 10 LXCs are stopped and other LXCs are giving the error: Error 500: closing file '/var/tmp/pve-reserved-ports.tmp.5271' failed - No space left on device
The VMs show error: Error 500: closing file '/var/tmp/pve-reserved-ports.tmp.913' failed - No space left on device

Can you post (run these within the host shell, you can also SSH in if GUI is crashing or do this directly on the actual console):

Code:
lsblk -f
fdisk -l
zfs list -o space
df -h

You could have posted what your issue was and how you got it resolved for the benefit of others.

Can you post / attach journalctl -b -u pveproxy > pveproxy.log ?

Yeah, lets see the outputs from above.

Also, if you edit your thread title and include e.g. description or error message you are getting, you are more likely to get help.
