Clean up boot volume?

[Terry Wilson]

I have a freenas box running 11.0-U4 that has started alerting with "
The capacity for the volume 'freenas-boot' is currently at 95%, while the recommended value is below 80%."

I have been to the boot system boot menu to see if there are any files I can remove but looks good there

So how can I figure out what is using up this space and clean it up?

There's your problem--you've put 28 GB of stuff in /root. Normally, there's very little there, so find out what you put there, and move it somewhere more appropriate. And check your FTP configuration.

Found it... stupid user error. Someone was FTP'ing files into root into a sub folder... nice....
