I just realized that our monitoring data shows the disk-filling behavior starting at exactly 10:40pm both times it has happened. That suggests a scheduled event but the ERAS reports for server and client task have nothing listed as running at this time. Nor does Windows task scheduler, and I even verified the server VM is not getting backed up at that time either. I'm not a SQL guy so I'm not sure how else to recover the situation aside from rebooting. Would also be interested to know a lower-impact method of at least temporarily clearing this. Let the googling begin I guess.

Hi, Hoping someone might be able to help with suggestions of how to approach troubleshooting this issue... On consecutive nights this week, SQL Express tempdb on my ERA Server has suddenly decided to fill the disk over a period of about 45min (~30GB or so). The server trace log showed nothing that seemed related and Eset support (via online chat) had basically no suggestions. Both times so far restarting the server OS (Windows 2012 R2) has cleared the space, but this has never been needed before.
