Hello
i have a proxmox server with about twenty lxc containers

In my 250gb ssd, after just 6 days the drive is full. From what I knew LXC containers didn't allocate their own space and scaled from the disk....
Any solutions?
 
Sorry, could you clarify the question a bit? First, how are your containers configured (config files from /etc/pve/lxc/<vmid>.conf, storage type/setup (zfs, lvm, ext4, ...), etc...)? Second, are you asking why the containers filled up or is there something else going on? Containers of course use space on the disk their placed on just like anything else.
