Keep getting "[Errno 28] No space left on device" message in CLI while trying to delete Glacier archives

Question

Been trying to figure out how to check storage space, change it, or at least see it. Is there anyway to get clearcut instructions for doing this without paying anything? I've been ordered to delete glacier files that a (since) fired employee erroneously uploaded. I've been successfully deleting archive files (from the archive id's obtained from the output-json), but cannot get any outputjson reports due to the "...No space left on device" message. We're going ut of business and cannot pay anymore

Answer

1st I type:
aws glacier initiate-job --account-id 7115####8535 --vault-name Cxxxs --job-parameters='{"Type": "inventory-retrieval"}'

then:
aws glacier describe-job --account-id 711####535 --vault-name Cxxx --job-id fFWmpU3oc3hc8AEFRwZRDP0AINs-X9NpbF-FrMMB8uWR*****83AUOFb5Ha9SXdAd6h8WCIB_zCSXXSugdDWgGEM65

I keep checking, keep getting "...    	
	"Completed": false,
    	"StatusCode": "InProgress",..." 
for a few hours, then finally get:
    	"StatusCode": "Succeeded",
    	"StatusMessage": "Succeeded",

then I type:

aws glacier get-job-output --account-id 711####535 --vault-name Cxxx --job-id fFWmpU3oc3hc8AEFRwZRDP0AINs-X9NpbF-FrMMB8uW*****3AUOFb5Ha9SXdAd6h8WCIB_zCSXXSugdDWgGEM65 output.json

and get:
[Errno 28] No space left on device

Thanks. I actually upgraded my account last week in hopes of getting answer, but so far its been radio silence,,,

Answer

**[Errno 28] No space left on device** is a message more likely to be associated with the device you're running the commands on - is this a server, or an EC2 instance, or your laptop - rather than S3.

Check the local filesystem usage for any full filesystems.

Still getting the exact error message using a different machine (with full privilidges and more than enough space)
Is there a way to get in touch with a real person who manages these vaults/archives? We've had a nighmare trying to download (& delete) these files that we need to get rid of. Thaks for all of your help
