(!!! CRUCIAL) Disk usage issue
Posted by togeh4ever in discord-bots.
Hi Wispbyte Support, I need help with what appears to be a severe storage/filesystem issue on my server. My server suddenly began reporting approximately 280 GB of disk usage out of 295 GB (100% usage, 0 bytes available) . The strange part is that the actual files visible inside are nowhere near this size. I ran several disk checks from the server's startup command because the terminal was not responding to commands. Relevant results: : 295G total, 280G used, 0 available, 100% : 295G total, 280G used, 0 available, 100% : approximately 1.4G total visible usage , mostly : largest visible directories/files were only in the MB/GB range, with around 121 MB found nothing My SQLite database is only a few KB: — 4.0 KB — 53 KB — 32 KB is only around 41 MB is around 55 MB Despite this, Wispbyte's filesystem reports 280 GB consumed. The server also repeatedly stops immediately after startup with: The issue appeared around the time I was developing a Discord bot message logging feature, so I initially suspected my application. However, the application's visible files do not account for anything remotely close to 280 GB. I have also tried reinstalling/redeploying the application, but the reported storage usage remains around 280 GB. At this point I suspect the missing disk usage may be outside the container's visible filesystem, such as deleted but still open files, Docker/container storage, overlay filesystem usage, or another host level storage issue that I cannot inspect from inside the server. Could you please investigate the server/node's actual disk usage and identify what is consuming the approximately 280 GB? I would especially appreciate it if you could check for deleted but open files, Docker/overlay storage, container layers, or filesystem accounting discrepancies on the host. I can provide the complete console output and relevant application files if needed. Thank you.
