Eric Is is the same thing if you shorten the protection period or release snapshots ? Thanks, Ryusuke Konishi --0-1734587112-1248636915=:64411 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii

/proc/mounts:
rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 &nb sp;
/dev/root / nilfs2 rw,noatime 0 0

The only thing I see in syslog related to nilfs:
Jul 26 12:23:50 gentoo klogd: VFS: Mounted root (nilfs2 filesystem) readonly on device 8:2.
Jul 26 12:31:44 gentoo nilfs_cleanerd[2690]: start
Jul 26 12:31:44 gentoo nilfs_cleanerd[2690]: override protection period to 0

Note that the nilfs_cleanerd message is from when I started it manually (with -p0).

Using lscp, I see no snapshots, but several thousand checkpoints. I tried deleting the checkpoints with rmcp, but that didn't free up any space. The disk is still slowly filling.

Oh, I thought the problem would be fixed with nilfs-utils-2.0.14.

How does the relevant line in /proc/mounts look like?

I think you can find the error which terminated cleanerd in
/var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages.

Is is the same thing if you shorten the protection period or release
snapshots ?
