Troubleshooting: Storage

Storage full

Symptom: STORAGE_FULL (CRITICAL). Diagnostics name the exact backend or pool that is full. New guests cannot be created until capacity is restored.

  • Free space or expand the backend.
  • Check for large snapshots and orphaned disks.

Low space

Symptom: STORAGE_LOW_SPACE. Plan a capacity expansion before it becomes a failure. Thresholds are reported at 70/80/90/95 %.

Backend offline

Symptom: STORAGE_BACKEND_OFFLINE. Check the pool and the network path to network storage.

LVM metadata high

Symptom: LVM_METADATA_HIGH. The volume group metadata usage is above the warning threshold. Expand LVM metadata capacity; do not delete logical volumes to reclaim metadata.

Mapping missing

Symptom: STORAGE_MAPPING_MISSING. Re-run the provider asset sync.

A volume resize did not shrink

By design: volumes are grow-only. A provider-side success is never shrunk back.

Commands
