unknown device

  • i have a filesystem listed on /dev/vda1, and the used space is growing fairly steadily - it was at 419MiB free a few minutes ago.


    i have no idea what is accessing this device, and i am not allowed to unmount or delete it. what can i do to track down this device. i have checked lsusb but it is not there, and it is not listed as the source for any of my shares.


    your help is greatly appreciated!

  • How many physical drives do you have attached?

    A backup strategy is worthless unless you have a verified to work by testing restore strategy.


    OMV AMD64 7.x on headless Chenbro NR12000 1U Intel Xeon CPU E3-1230 V2 @ 3.30GHz 32GB ECC RAM.


  • thanks gderf for responding.


    first, this is omv running in a proxmox container.


    physically on the server:

    1x 1 TB USB drive for OS - not shared to OMV

    4x 4 TB drives configured as RAID on OMV


    when i ran lsusb, there were no devices on /dev/vda1

    unfortunately, i am not very linux knowledgable, so do not know how to further investigate what this device is.


    thanks again.
