It sounds like your disk doesn’t have much space left on it. You should really try to free more space, if the disk fills your database may be corrupted.

I’m not agree managing high disk watermark with percentage, because the limit grows with the disk dimension; following my case, with 292GB availables

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/centos-root 3.1T 2.8T 292G 91% /

Is it possible to set a fixed value in the configuration?
For example, I found these kind of configurations:
cluster.routing.allocation.disk.threshold_enabled: true
cluster.routing.allocation.disk.watermark.low: 5gb
cluster.routing.allocation.disk.watermark.high: 2gb
