I guess this is probably some bug, but my system has been complaining about low disk space since yesterday, and it halts the execution of some scripts that I run as a result. However, the disk with my root is far from being full. It's a 8 TB disk and almost 3 TB are empty. Here is the output of df.

Filesystem      1K-blocks       Used  Available Use% Mounted on
udev             65932236          0   65932236   0% /dev
tmpfs            13193628      59176   13134452   1% /run
/dev/sda2      7751335268 5173493328 2187174268  71% /
tmpfs            65968136    1041112   64927024   2% /dev/shm
tmpfs                5120          4       5116   1% /run/lock
tmpfs            65968136          0   65968136   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs            13193628        100   13193528   1% /run/user/1000
/dev/sdc       7752327804 3879849672 3481760420  53% /mnt/disk2

Has anyone encountered a similar issue and managed to solve it or does anyone have any idea what could I do?

    Please include the output of df -i as well, as this will show number of free inodes. – vidarlo Jan 05 '20 at 09:25

  • You can also be out of space if you have no inodes available too; ie. loads of tiny files using almost no disk space, but have used all 'blocks/inodes' created at format time. If you want to use the extra space - you can use it by growing files (or erasing some of your possibly hundreds of thousands of tiny files that may have used all inodes allocated at format time) – guiverc Jan 05 '20 at 10:11
  • If possible, show us the complete, exact error you are seeing – user535733 Jan 05 '20 at 13:58
