Installed the OpenLiteSpeed Wordpress from the DigitalOcean’s image. After month or so I’ve got the next situation. The MySQL is not started and after small research I’ve found out that there’s no space left on devices.
df -i

Hello, inkink
If those are simple snap images it’s not an issue to have 100% utilization of their disk space partition. They’re configured to work in this way.
If you use df with the -T argument. Tt will display the file system type of your system along with other information.
df -T
You will see that the file system type for the snap partitions are squashfs and this is normal for this type of FS. The filesystem size is always just large enough to contain it’s contents.
Hope that this helps! Regards, Alex
Yes, I’ve found the backups at the end of searching for big files, so the issue was not in fully occupied space in /dev/loop#, but in backups folder.
