SOLVED Server down - filesystem “/” mounted at “/” reached 99.83% of its available blocks.

Hi,

My server is down, I get this email from server

The filesystem “/” mounted at “/” reached “critical” status because you currently use 99.83% of its available blocks.

Anyone has idea where to look to solve this issue ?

I checked via rescue mode the available space and I see this:

Are you able to boot up the server? In rescue system you have to mount the disks to be able to check the content and free up some space.

If you're only able to boot into rescue mode you'll need to work with an admin or your host to resolve the issue, as cPanel tools won't be of any assistance there.

Hi,

Thank for the answers!
The problem was solve, I was able to access the server in rescue mode and delete the backup files that used all the space for root centos partition.

I'm glad you were able to get that working!

 

[bogmar88]

Do you know why the space used by centos does not appear in the picture attached in first post?
It took me a long time to find where the problem is.

As @andrew.n said, when you're in rescue mode everything is mounted the same as it is when the server is working normally, so you wouldn't be able to see the standard partitions.
