DietPi-Backup stops services and does not restart them after successfull backup

Trickplay files are being created, but not for every video file. However, these files are sufficient to completely fill the /tmp directory to 100%. After that, various services no longer restart. So far, I haven’t found a setting in Jellyfin that influences this.

You could extend the filesystem if needed

Can you check /etc/default/jellyfin there is a setting for a temp directory

# temporary directory path; used to construct paths for short-lived temporary files
# the old default was $JELLYFIN_CACHE_DIR/temp; use that to restore previous behaviour,
# though it will have an additional jellyfin/ subdir appended
# otherwise, leave this commented
#TMPDIR="/tmp"

Yes, jellyfin will cause trouble if you leave the temp directory on default, I had it completely break my system until I removed some files from /tmp that seemingly did not exist anyway.

@Joulinar and @urostor, thanks a lot guys :clap:! After changing the /tmp-Dir for Jellyfin, dietpi-backup does its thing and afterwards all services restart successfully.
