A process stopped running. I went to disable the job and can't even access crontab. The instance was provisioned with about 15GB.
$ crontab -e
/tmp/crontab.QdgWmI: No space left on device
Creation of temporary crontab file failed - aborting
When checking the space used there are about 8.5 GB accounted for using du:
sudo du -cha --max-depth=1 / | grep -E "M|G"
139M /boot
791M /snap
2.3G /usr
4.4G /home
287M /run
du: cannot access '/proc/380392/task/380392/fd/4': No such file or directory
du: cannot access '/proc/380392/task/380392/fdinfo/4': No such file or directory
du: cannot access '/proc/380392/fd/3': No such file or directory
du: cannot access '/proc/380392/fdinfo/3': No such file or directory
575M /var
2.2M /tmp
7.2M /etc
8.4G /
8.4G total
df though indicates all 15GB are used.
$ df -h

This instance should be stateless so I'm not even sure where to start looking.
Targeting different locations with du hasn't uncovered anything that looks exceptional.
