OpenStack SWIFT mounted drives filling up boot drive??

Openstack swift issue.  I have all nodes running Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS.  I have one controller node and 4 swift storage nodes.  All of the storage nodes have 1 boot drive and 3 data drives.  The first storage node works just fine.  However, it filled.  Upon which I realized the other 3 nodes are not working correctly.  It appears that the "boot" drive on the other 3 nodes is full.  However, I cannot find where the space is taken from.  The three data drives are mounted off of /srv/node/sda, /srv/node/sdc, and /srv/node/sdd (as described in the OpenStack documenation).  If I unmount them, I am still able to access those paths and see the contents.  So, it is saving the data to local disk and not the mounted disks???

Any help would be appreciated.

DId you checked the below file in controller node

/etc/swift/swift.conf

You should have a mapping there
Yes, it looks like saving the data to the local disk and not the mounted disks,  The reason could be your volume might not be xfs filesystem, make it xfs and mount it, and restart all swift services.
