Having an issue when I try to spin up a new VM in unraid. I have PXE boot working and when the VM goes to do an automated installation of Centos, I'm getting this error. My btrfs cache drive isn't anywhere close to being full(22.6GB of 500GB), so I know that isn't correct. I've been following along some of the steps described in this thread:

https://forums.unraid.net/topic/54533-624-cache-drive-reporting-quotno-space-left-on-diskquot/

 

There doesn't seem to have been a resolution at the time. Here is my output when I run the commands:

Unallocated:
   /dev/sdb1     438.70GiB

I can see that there is 438GBs that are unallocated, how do I add that space to Data,single? Currently the 21.03GB of data occupying Data,single is my VMs so hopefully I can do this without having to format the drive 😅

 

Atttached is my diagnostics zip.

Cache has plenty of space, both the system and appdata shares exist on both cache and array, and there are some duplicate files, decide where you want them (set the appropriate use cache option) and move/delete the other ones, the domains share exists only on the array, I assume you want cache for that, so change it also.

Okay, I've now done that and I am still experiencing the same issue with the same results when running the btrfs commands. This is something I had noticed when I had moved my domains share, that data, single didn't change at all. I had moved the domains share in hopes that would free up space so I could continue trying to build my vms.

Please post current diags.

Domains and system shares are still on the array, but that's OK if that's what you want.

 

Cache still has plenty of space, the problem is likely with VM itself, possibly a wrong path somewhere, see if you can copy a large file to cache.

Yep, that seems to have worked. I moved a few large files over and they transferred. The data, single partition expanded to Data,single: Size:36.00GiB, Used:28.58GiB (79.39%) and after I deleted those files it shrank to Data,single: Size:28.00GiB, Used:21.02GiB (75.06%)

 

I'm not sure what any of this means tbh. One of the first things I did try was moving my VMs from /mnt/user/domains to mnt/disk2/domains to no avail.

The allocated chunks are created and deleted as needed, as long as there is unallocated space on the device(s) you should never get out of space errors.

Sooooooo, it turns out I'm an idiot 😅 at some point in time I changed the config I'm using to only use 1GB of ram instead of 2
