Can Any One let me know, Why local storage is getting 100% full everyday in Proxmox VE 4.4. When I restart the VE it will go down to 1.5%. Please let me know what should be the issue?

Hi Alwin,

Thanks for the reply. Please see attached screen shot. not the local storage is showing 21.3% after few hours it will reach 100% full.
Once I restart the Proxmox Server, The space will come down to 1.5%.
Please let me know what should be the reason?

The screenshot still leaves us with guessing. Check on the server top/df/du and logs.

Please find attached logs for your reference. Please let me know if you need more information.

Something is writing to your local storage and fills it up. You need to find out what is writing onto your disk that much that it fills up your root.

Please check logs size are increasing. How to overcome this issue?

If you logs don't rotate (usually daily or weekly), then those logs grow till the disk space is full. Also check, why your kernel & messages logs are growing.
