So why is your Zabbix configuration monitoring disk space on the proc filesystem?
If I were you, I would immediately go into the Zabbix configuration and disable monitoring for the proc file system.
You should not be monitoring /proc with the same Zabbix tools used to monitor a normal filesystem. When you stop monitoring the /proc filesystem like it is a regular filesystem, those alarms with go away.
Thanks for replying !
Zabbix, monitores all mounted partition, for that reason it is generating alarms like that. Because somehow those /proc partition are been mounted and looks like that myspell thing is trying to write on /proc;Or is alarming because is not possible to write there.
Since I find the issue I suspend this from the monitoring.
The other guys are planning to reinstall the OS, and in order to avoid this I was trying to find a way to remove those entries from /proc/self/mounts or a way to prevent this.
Thanks again !

KPARTX(8) Linux Administrator's Manual KPARTX(8)
NAME
kpartx - Create device maps from partition tables
SYNOPSIS
kpartx [-a | -d | -l] [-v] wholedisk
DESCRIPTION
This tool, derived from util-linux' partx, reads partition tables on specified device and create device maps over partitions segments
detected. It is called from hotplug upon device maps creation and deletion.
OPTIONS
-a Add partition mappings
-r Read-only partition mappings
-d Delete partition mappings
-u Update partition mappings
-l List partition mappings that would be added -a
-p set device name-partition number delimiter
-f force creation of mappings; overrides 'no_partitions' feature
-g force GUID partition table (GPT)
-v Operate verbosely
-s Sync mode. Don't return until the partitions are created
EXAMPLE
To mount all the partitions in a raw disk image:
kpartx -av disk.img
This will output lines such as:
loop3p1 : 0 20964762 /dev/loop3 63
The loop3p1 is the name of a device file under /dev/mapper which you can use to access the partition, for example to fsck it:
fsck /dev/mapper/loop3p1
When you're done, you need to remove the devices:
kpartx -d disk.img
