## Test Environment

|
| RancherOS | v1.4.0 |
|
||||||
|
| Platform | Virtualbox |
|
||||||
|
| Root Disk | 2GB |
|
||||||
|
| CPU | 1C |
|
||||||
|
| MEM | 2GB |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In order to demonstrate how to use the revery console, we choose a scene that the disk space is full and the OS cannot start.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Fill up the disk
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Start this VM to check disk usage:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
/dev/sda1 ext4 1.8G 567.2M 1.2G 32% /opt
|
||||||
|
/dev/sda1 ext4 1.8G 567.2M 1.2G 32% /mnt
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Fill the remaining space with `dd`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
$ cd /opt/
|
||||||
|
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=2GB.img bs=1M count=2000
|
||||||
|
dd: writing '2GB.img': No space left on device
|
||||||
|
1304+0 records in
|
||||||
|
1302+1 records out
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$ ls -ahl
|
||||||
|
total 1334036
|
||||||
|
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0K Jul 19 07:32 .
|
||||||
|
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4.0K Jul 19 06:58 ..
|
||||||
|
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.3G Jul 19 07:32 2GB.img
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At this point you cannot reboot in the OS, but you can reboot via Virtualbox:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
$ shutdown -h now
|
||||||
|
Failed to write to log, write /var/log/boot/shutdown.log: no space left on device
|
||||||
|
[ ] shutdown:info: Setting shutdown timeout to 60 (rancher.shutdown_timeout set to 60)
|
||||||
|
Failed to write to log, write /var/log/boot/shutdown.log: no space left on device
|
||||||
|
Failed to write to log, write /var/log/boot/shutdown.log: no space left on device
|
||||||
|
.[ ] shutdown:fatal: Error response from daemon: {"message":"mkdir /var/lib/system-docker/overlay2/7c7dffbed40e7b0ed4c68d5630b17a179751643ca7b7a4ac183e48a767071684-init: no space left on device"}
|
||||||
|
Failed to write to log, write /var/log/boot/shutdown.log: no space left on device
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After rebooting, you will not be able to enter the OS and there will be a kernel panic.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Boot with recovery console
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When you can access the bootloader, you should select the `Recovery console` and press `<Tab>` to edit:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You need add `rancher.autologin=tty1` to the end, then press `<Enter>`. If all goes well, you will automatically login to the recovery console.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## How to recover
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We need to mount the root disk in the recovery console and delete some data:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
$ mkdir /mnt/root-disk
|
||||||
|
$ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/root-disk
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# delete data previously generated using dd
|
||||||
|
$ ls -ahl /mnt/root-disk/opt
|
||||||
|
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.3G Jul 19 07:32 2GB.img
|
||||||
|
$ rm -f /mnt/root-disk/opt/2GB.img
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After rebooting, you can enter the OS normally.
