Node crashes during sync - database or disk is full

[Concentrate1234]

Installation on Win11 + Docker + Python works well, but when starting the node, it crashes after a few minutes. After some investigations, it seems the partition /algod/data is full:

# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on overlay 1007G 4.2G 952G 1% / tmpfs 64M 0 64M 0% /dev tmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup shm 64M 0 64M 0% /dev/shm overlay 3.9G 3.9G 0 100% /algod/data /dev/sde 1007G 4.2G 952G 1% /etc/hosts tmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /proc/acpi tmpfs 3.9G 0 3.9G 0% /sys/firmware

Is it possible to change the docker container to have enough space to sync? Thanks.

Hi @Concentrate1234 thanks for reporting it, quick question how much space do you have allocated for the container? In Docker Desktop you can find this setting under Settings > Resources > Advanced

Hi, seems ressource limit is managed by Windows. See below screenshot:

I uninstalled Docker Desktop and reinstalled it without WSL2. Set the ressources as below and still get the /algod/data partition full after 5/10 minutes of running... It seems this partition is really too small (I have 250 GB on / but only 4.9 GB on /algod/data).

I have the same issue, using python 3.11, windows 11 and docker with wsl. I have about 200 GB free disk, but algorun reports the disk is full

[Concentrate1234]

ok I found a workaround:

• Stop the node with "algorun stop"
• Edit the docker-compose.yml file generated in the same folder as the algorun command was ran
• Remove the line "${PWD}/data:/algod/data/:rw" and save the file
• Run the "algorun start" command (in the same folder as editted docker-compose.yml file

Now in the docker container, the /data/algod is in / partition where there is enough space:

df -h

Final solution for this issue:

1. Stop the node with "algorun stop"
2. Edit the docker-compose.yml file generated in the same folder as the algorun command was ran
3. Replace the lines
   • ${PWD}/data:/algod/data/:rw
   • ${PWD}/config.json:/etc/algorand/config.json:rw with:
   • ./data:/algod/data/:rw
   • ./config.json:/etc/algorand/config.json:rw
4. Save
5. Run the "algorun start" command (in the same folder as editted docker-compose.yml file
