Hi,

I'm running Home Assistant on a Thin Client HP T630. I bought a 240 GB SDD and installed Home Assistant. It's been running for some time but now I run into a error.
I did find out that this error is because of the disk is full. But i don't know how to fix it (probably increase the size).
I also have Pi-hole running. But I could size the available space for Home Assistant to about 180 GB, that way I have a lot of extra space.

Can anyone help me out. I've made a couple of screenshots to show my situation.

Can't understand everything yet about your setup, but so far I note the following:

1. Why does your HA VM (100) require such a large disk-size? Are you constantly making HA backups, and never deleting old ones? Remember you can also make a VM backup within Proxmox, which is very efficiently managed. (I personally run HA VM with a disk-size of 32gb, constant HA backups, maintaining about 8/9 on the HA disk at any time, and use about 37% of my disk space. I don't understand your setup. Maybe you store large media files within HA?)

2. It appears you installed PVE twice, once on the 32gb Sandisk (SD card?), and then again on the 240gb Kingston. Why? And why is this 32gb Sandisk disk still connected. What is its purpose. (You don't show me your local-lvm storage details, VM disks & CT Volumes).
 
Thankfully I found a tip on the forum to delete snapshots. I had one and deleted it so it's running again but for how long....
I have only a view smal mp3 audiofiles in my media. I do have influxdb and grafana and my backups are now 4,7GB each day. I normally write them to my NAS but that failed for a couple of days and I got the error.

I had a 32GB disk with HA installed first before the 240gb, but can't get it deleted. I wanted to use the 32gb for something else.

I really don't know why HA is so large.

Update:
After deleting Grafana en Influxdb (which I didn't used my backups are about 600MB. A lot better this way.
