Please note that I've had issues where my ERX device filled the root to 100% usage and as such I ran into issues on the device. I'm not sure what would happen if you reboot under these circumstances but I rather not tempt fate. If you do end up at 100% usage on / it's probably the fault of the Adguard logs. You can clear them on your Adguard web interface at Settings --> General Settings under log configuration. I also recommend you change some log retention settings to avoid this issue in the future!
I noticed the issues when I tried to change settings on my EdgeRouter web interface. I tried to enable some firewall rules I had in place and ended up with a red x icon instead of a green saved icon, ouch!
You can check for space issues on your Edgerouter at the command line with the "df" command. If your root / is at 100% you're going to have issues. Clear the logs and check again!
I've updated this guide to include the fix, under the heading "Reduce AdGuard logs". These steps include the remedy and prevention steps for this issue.
Sorry for the oversite lady and gents, lets keep those packets flowin'
Nice, thank you for the heads up on this. I was not aware that it kept a firmware backup by default. Looking further into this, Ubiquiti documentation recommends doing it if you need more space.
It also mentions a similar command that shows the used space of each image.

Wesley,
small additional element to gain some room.....
most of the time the Edge-x has 2 system images on file (current and previous)
just run:
show system imageif there are multiple images you can:
delete system imagethis will delete ONLY your previous system image (not your current)
it brought my df % down from 81% to 44%.
cheers,
Davy
