The disk usage of the file system /dev/mapper/jvg_P-jlvmrootrw[jlvmrootrw] has crossed the threshold of 80%


The option of cleaning up the file system is risky and might break the whole filesystem.


We can recommend following steps to be performed in a safe maintenance window:

Option1: Cleanup using -> request vmhost cleanup

Option2: USB recovery -> Please note that all the contents along with partition details are erased only when an SSD is recovered using the alternate disk or a USB.

Option3: request vmhost zeroize -> Erases all data including config and log files and start with reinstall junos

 

If the above steps doesn't help in resolving the issue then, we can provide RMA the chassis.
