I have a Linux machine (Ubuntu with Btrfs) which runs Docker and 4 cointainers.

Volumes



# du -h -d 1 "/var/lib/docker/volumes/"
451M /var/lib/docker/volumes/monitoring_prometheus
2.3M /var/lib/docker/volumes/monitoring_grafana
4.0K /var/lib/docker/volumes/monitoring_alertmanager
453M /var/lib/docker/volumes/


The problem is that I cannot explain what is using much of the disk space.



# btrfs fi df /
Data, single: total=13.01GiB, used=10.82GiB
System, DUP: total=32.00MiB, used=16.00KiB
Metadata, DUP: total=639.75MiB, used=101.23MiB
GlobalReserve, single: total=16.00MiB, used=0.00B


So, around 11GB is used (also reported by df -h), but I would expect that much less should be used. There are 3 images, which take around 350MB in total and around 450MB is used for actual data, so less than 1GB + OS itself.
If I try to dig where are the files that are taking up disk space - du reports that only 4.8G of the disk is used (ignoring btrfs' copy on write and 2.6G of this is /var/lib/docker). 



# du -sh /
du: cannot access '/proc/1209/task/1209/fd/4': No such file or directory
du: cannot access '/proc/1209/task/1209/fdinfo/4': No such file or directory
du: cannot access '/proc/1209/fd/3': No such file or directory
du: cannot access '/proc/1209/fdinfo/3': No such file or directory
4.8G /


I found some hints that this can be in case that some large files are open by application, but deleted. I looked in lsof and rebooted the machine, but the result is the same. Second thing could be subvolumes, but it's apparently the root one that is taking majority of disk space.

      4.0K /var/lib/docker/volumes/monitoring_alertmanager
      453M /var/lib/docker/volumes/


      The problem is that I cannot explain what is using much of the disk space.



      # btrfs fi df /
      Data, single: total=13.01GiB, used=10.82GiB
      System, DUP: total=32.00MiB, used=16.00KiB
      Metadata, DUP: total=639.75MiB, used=101.23MiB
      GlobalReserve, single: total=16.00MiB, used=0.00B


      So, around 11GB is used (also reported by df -h), but I would expect that much less should be used. There are 3 images, which take around 350MB in total and around 450MB is used for actual data, so less than 1GB + OS itself.
      If I try to dig where are the files that are taking up disk space - du reports that only 4.8G of the disk is used (ignoring btrfs' copy on write and 2.6G of this is /var/lib/docker). 



      # du -sh /
      du: cannot access '/proc/1209/task/1209/fd/4': No such file or directory
      du: cannot access '/proc/1209/task/1209/fdinfo/4': No such file or directory
      du: cannot access '/proc/1209/fd/3': No such file or directory
      du: cannot access '/proc/1209/fdinfo/3': No such file or directory
      4.8G /


      I found some hints that this can be in case that some large files are open by application, but deleted. I looked in lsof and rebooted the machine, but the result is the same. Second thing could be subvolumes, but it's apparently the root one that is taking majority of disk space.
