Monitoring Splunk

The index processor has paused data flow

After a hardware failure was resolved, I attempted to start splunk again...but I am now getting this error

"The index processor has paused data flow. Current free disk space on partition '/' has fallen to 158MB, below the minimum of 5000MB. Data writes to index path '/data1/splunk/indexes/audit/db'cannot safely proceed. Increase free disk space on partition '/' by removing or relocating data."

I understand what is saying, but the odd part is that partition "/" never had that much space and all other indexers are configured the same with no issues.

What am I missing here?

Can it be so that your node hasn’t mount all FSs yet?

You should check what is your SPLUNK_DB path and then check that it’s present and it has enough space.
