got up this morning to find my server root filesystem (btrfs) full.

found to snapshots taking up ~40GiB, removed (snapper delete ###) cleaned up some archived log files, rsyslog

Hi Patrick, concerning your problem, I found this in my notes from some time ago but don't know the source: "In case there is unexplainable low disk space on btrfs the following condition might exist: Inside /.snapshots is an old snapshot that is not recognized by snapper anymore and cannot be deleted by snapper. In this case just enter the following in a terminal (snapshot # is an example and has to be replaced by the actual snapshot number) sudo btrfs subvolume delete /.snapshots/7/snapshot After that the directory "/7" in /.snapshots is left over and can be deleted from command line or dolphin."
