Hi guys,
i'm new and neophyte in proxmonx word.
I have a problem with space in local (pve), the disk is full and I have no idea what is taking up space. The backups are saved on another external disk, I have already deleted the iso images of the operating systems.

root@pve:/# df -h

Hi,
you could use a tool like ncdu to find out where the disk usage comes from. It should be in the official debian repository.

Bash:
cd /
ncdu -x
 
unfortunatly i can't install the package cause i'havent no more free space...

root@pve:/ sudo apt install ncdu

0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 92 not upgraded.
Need to get 46.9 kB of archives.
After this operation, 111 kB of additional disk space will be used.
E: You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/.
 
If you don't care about (old) logs, you can remove the files from the /var/log/ directory. Maybe first check if those are (very) large and find out if there is a repeating error message that you might want to fix. Also check if you are making backups to the root filesystem instead of another drive, which typically happens when a mount failed or is forgotten. More details can be found in very similar (old) threads on this forum.
 
Delete some logs in "/var/log".
Check for failed ISO uploads in "/var/tmp".
