/config/proc/1/task/1/pagemap grew up to 224GB

Recently I experienced space issues on my server, which were caused by the groth of

/config/proc/1/task/1/pagemap

file. It was already grown to 224GB! and filled up the whole SSD on which my system and the AppData for my docker images resides.

In order to get my server back to work, I simply deleted this file and restarted the docker image.

Currently no issues, the file was not recreated. Whole AppData now back at 29MB.

I have looked up disk usage statistics and it seems that 3 days ago in the morning the file grew from now to then...it happened right after a booting the server.

Same happens to me. Mine is now with 30 GB.

I'm glad to know that the file can just be deleted without issues.

I've just deleted the file and run the Docker.

The Docker image ran without any issue and interestingly the file pagemap was not recreated.

I'm running the Docker in my UNRAID.
