Hi. I currently have an Ubuntu server box at home which I use as a home file server.
The server has various services running including sabnzbd, which currently has quite a large queue of pending downloads, however I noticed recently that my HDD on there was running at 99% capacity when running a 'df'.
Now, when the server starts, it doesn't stay up for very long before crashing with an extremely long error message (100s of pages of similar repeated errors) The last few lines of the error are:
Code:
ata3 00: status: { DRDY DF ERR }
ata3 00: error: { ABRT }
ata3 00: failed to enable AA(error_mask=0x1)
ata3 00: failed to enable AA(error_mask=0x1)
end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 80084025
Buffer I/O error on device sda4, logical block 0
EXT4-fs error (device sda4): ext4_find_entry:934: [node #9437210: comm python: reading directory Iblock 0
as far as I'm aware, sabnzbd is a python service, and I think that maybe the server is crashing because it's trying to read/write to a disk that's too full.
I have tried booting to recovery mode root shell, and doing a df to see the disk is full, but this is giving false data. It says that every partition on my system is 32GB and 11% full. I'm assuming this is something to do with the recovery mode, and not all of my HDDs
The server doesn't stay up for long enough for me to stop any services to debug if this stops the problem.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
