New user getting "/var/log is getting full (currently 100 % used)" error

Very new to Unraid and linux systems in general. I'm still getting setup, preclearing disks, transfering data, and getting a feel for the lay of the land. I grabbed the Fix common problems plugin and after a reboot I'm getting this error:

 

"/var/log is getting full (currently 100 % used)" 

 

I downloaded the diagnostic folder and took a look at the syslog which is being flooded with this error:

 

Nov 16 13:37:07 DefineR5 kernel: ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve [\_GPE._L6F.PGRT], AE_NOT_FOUND (20180531/psargs-330)
Nov 16 13:37:07 DefineR5 kernel: ACPI Error: Method parse/execution failed \_GPE._L6F, AE_NOT_FOUND (20180531/psparse-516)
Nov 16 13:37:07 DefineR5 kernel: ACPI Error: AE_NOT_FOUND, while evaluating GPE method [_L6F] (20180531/evgpe-509)

 

This really doesn't mean much to me so I did some googling and found a few having the same issue:

It seems to be a known issue with Skylake chipsets on ASROCK boards. At least one person had it fixed by updating their BIOS so I will try that first. Beyond that I don't really know how to troubleshoot this issue. I don't love the idea of blindly issuing commands that I do not understand; and looking at the posted solutions I wouldn't even know what to change or where to issue them. 

 

I will update my bios and report back if the issue persists.

 

 

Edit: BIOS update seems to have fixed it. Sorry for creating unnecessary post.
