I am using kibana and i got the following error when trying to start kibana:

// journalctl -xe | grep kibana  
// fs.js: 796  
// return binding.writeBuffer(fd, buffer, offset, length, position)  
// ^  
// Error: ENOSPC: no space left on device  
// .......  
// at save (/usr/share/kibana/node\_modules/babel-register/lib/cache.js)  
// ....  
// at bootstrap\_node.js

running the following command to check the system space for:  
// df -P /usr/share/kibana | tail -1 | cut d' ' -f 1  
// /dev/mapper/centos-root

And checking the mounted point found that the disk space of /dev/mapper/cento-root full utilized.

I would like to understand how to move things in this case, checked some solution speaking about ENOSPC [related to npm or nodejs](https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/2461) but still it's not working in my case.

any suggestions on how to can fix this and what's the root cause for it?

If you have no space left on your disk then you'd need to poke around to find out why, it's not something we can figure out sorry to say.
