Hi all still a noob user but I really like OMV.
I recently had this problem where my web gui page wouldn't load.
Searched here and found the 16gb root drive was full. I managed to delete old compressed copys of the log files and get my web gui working again.
The /var/log folder was full like 12gb of data in var/log.
Can someone please try to help me figure out what I am doing wrong and why the root drive is filling up with these log files.
I changed the dns settings in the settings in OMV, And now everytime I boot it get stuck on this error

I can't get past this error so no command line no nothing. I'm very new to linux so without getting to a command like to edit the network file im stuck.
Thanks
It's my first post on this forum! I've used OMV on Intel x86 hardware but I have two QNAP "NAS" devices laying around. And I'd like to know if I can install OMV on these ARM "Feroceon". Debian itself is installable, and I will do that in a few days.
Regarding software or hardware RAID recovery, the answer to what I think you're asking is "no". If you're doing mdadm (software) RAID 5, data and parity is striped across all disks. Parity information will rebuild data from 1 drive failure but more…
Thanks- that and some old-fashioned research helped me understand a lot. Linux is getting more versatile for me every day. Who knows, I may switch my main PC to Debian some day, or at least, dual-boot.
Perhaps you can help me get a bit further in my…
Did you read the logs to see what it is writing about? A few details like hardware type etc might get better guesses. One other quick tip df -h shows the size of your partitions. apt-get clean all cleans your apt cache which can store a lot of archives…
So that has me wondering another question. I used the software raid built into OMV.
I've read that snap raid plug-in if an array fails the disks could still be read one by one to recover allot of the data.
Does that same effect happen with OMV built in…

And if your drives had significant age on them the chances of a drive failure, during a rebuild, are significant. Along those lines, don't forget to backup your…
