HI
my server was working fine, but today it's not
I can only access the server with Rescue only, and I try to see the logs of my Proxmox but can't find it
Syslog.Log

Code:

I can see a problem related to disk space but I remove some logs to get more space the problem is not gone and the GUI is not stating
df -h /mnt
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md2 437G 411G 3.6G 100% /mnt

Your help is highly appreciated
 
root@rescue /mnt/var/cache/apt/archives # du -hsx /mnt*
411G /mnt
root@rescue /mnt/var/cache/apt/archives # du -hsx /mnt/var*
401G /mnt/var
 
It looks like there may be a problem with your disk space, as indicated by the "No space left on device" errors in the logs. It is recommended to check the disk space on your server and free up any unnecessary files to increase the available space. Additionally, you may want to check for any errors related to Proxmox or the spiceproxy service in the logs and try to address those issues as well.

Why not show entire output of "df" , "mount", etc?
What relationship does /mnt have to / and /var?

df /mnt

I mount /dev/md2 to /mnt
I'm using my os in Rescue and I was trying to see if there is any big files i can delete or something

I believe they meant you should provide us with the full df -h output, with no other arguments like "/mnt" involved

After I delete some data the system boot normally, here is my df -h

df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 32G 0 32G 0% /dev
tmpfs 6.3G 1.1M 6.3G 1% /run
/dev/md2 437G 411G 3.2G 100% /
tmpfs 32G 43M 32G 1% /dev/shm

tmpfs 32G 0 32G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup

/dev/fuse 30M 20K 30M 1% /etc/pve
tmpfs 6.3G 0 6.3G 0% /run/user/0

How could I find the useless files?
