Quota exceeded on dataset boot-pool/.system/cores.

Hi folks, new to TrueNAS with a server I built about a month ago.
Running the latest: TrueNAS-SCALE-22.12.0

Seeing a recurring alert that eventually dissapears regarding my boot pool and not sure how to go about fixing this issue.

Code:

WARNING
Quota exceeded on dataset boot-pool/.system/cores. Used 84.36% (863.87 MiB of 1 GiB).

Code:

CRITICAL
Space usage for pool "boot-pool" is 96%. Optimal pool performance requires used space remain below 80%.

Code:

df | grep boot
boot-pool/ROOT/22.12.0                                        96464000    96300160      163840 100% /
boot-pool/grub                                                  172288        8448      163840   5% /boot/grub

My boot pool has 2x 120GB SSDs in a ZFS1 setup.

Any help greatly appreciated :)

That's just complaining about /var/db/system/cores being full. Delete some of the old core dump files in that directory.

Hi Sam, thanks for trying to help.

Seems like that directory is empy for me:

Code:

cd /var/db/system/cores
ls -ls
total 0
ls -als
total 13
 1 drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  2 Jan 18 13:00 .
12 drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 12 Jan 18 13:01 ..

Yes, there's a periodic job that runs to empty out that directory. Try moving your System Dataset to your data pool to prevent these messages in the future.
