Fresh to the forum, been using FreeNAS for a year now, experimented with it during the 9 series. I got on the wrong train last year, installed Corral 10.0.3 on a HP Microserver, didn't find the time to reinstall when it was abandoned and since it was doing it's job serving files perfectly, I left it humming along in the corner.
Today I ran into the problem that the boot volume (32GB USB3 thumb drive) had filled up completely, generated messages.
Turns out the main culprit is /var/db/system/cores which contains about 25GB of files named smbd.12345.core, where 12345 stands for various four and five digit numbers.
I found some threads on the forum and googled some information, but I didn't find any simple steps to remedy the situation.
I would really appreciate some step-by-step advice on how to get my FreeNAS back in good health and I'll promise to install 11 before summer :) Thanks in advance for your help!
