ASR9k IOS-XR upgrade space required - bytes or bits?

While reading through the upgrade doc for 5.2.2, I found an inconsistency in the documentation.
http://www.cisco.com/web/Cisco_IOS_XR_Software/pdf/ASR9k_Upgrade_Downgrade_Procedure_IOSXR_Rel_522.pdf
Under section 2 - verifications, step 5 - check disk space, the doc says you need 1.54 GB (capital B) for upgrade.  But when I run the command 'show filesystem' the directory sizes are listed as b (lowercase b).
I suspect the IOS-XR output is wrong (lower b should be capital B)  2685895680 b is only 0.3357 GB

Yes, it is bytes.
I'll get a cosmetic bug filed for the CLI, as per IEEE-1541 this is incorrect.
Thanks,

  • New IOS 4 update space required?

    I have a 3g and won't use much of the 4.2 update. So, why does the OS take up over 1.2 gig of space on my phone? It seriously puts a dent in storage space. Why can't there be a way of installing only what my phone can use? Why does the IOS need to be so bloated?

    The OS does not take up 1.2 gb. You most likely have some corrupted files on your iPhone bloating the Other space. Try doing a restore to correct it.

  • How much ios 5 backup space required

    I had roughly 7 GB space left on my macbook when I updated to iOS 5 on my iPhone 4.  During updating, it said I needed 18GB to back up all the media on my iPhone (we have 2 kids so all the pics and video take up a lot of space!).  So, I moved my music folder temporarily to the external and the install went all fine.  After installed, I moved my music folder back, had the roughly 7GB left.  However, now when I'm syncing the computer keeps running out of space and I get a message that the hard disk is almost full and the iPhone never completes a backup.  So, I'd move data off the computer, free up a few GB of space and try syncing.  During the backup portion of the sync, all the space would get eaten up and I'd get the hard disk is full message.  I've gone though this process 3 or 4 times now, having deleted or moved a total of about 10GB off my computer.  I'm currently down to 125.1 MB of space again.
    I checked the size of the backup folder and it clocks in at 33GB.  I only have a 32GB iPhone and have 2 GB of space free on it.  So, shouldn't the backup be significantly less than the 33GB it now shows?
    I'm perplexed because I don't know where all my free space is going and why is the backup folder bigger than the actual size of the iphone?  Plus I can't backup my phone.

    If you haven't figured this out yet, check out here.
    I had never downloaded the apps the way that is described here.  Didn't even know I could. 
    Also, after doing multiple "Transfer Purchases" I found I had two of my apps on my phone were no longer available (one was a discontinued free version of a now exclusive pay app) and I had to delete them from the phone before I could get a clean "Transfer Purchases" i.e. one where there was nothing to transfer because they were already downloaded directly to itunes from the page you get to in the store clicking on the new "Purchased" page.  Then I just synced again, backed up again, and did the update and it finally worked!  Yay!

  • Trying to clear space on my iPad to allow upgrading to iOS version 7, which requires a minimum of 5 GB, but only 1.2 remains available. What do I do?

    I want to upgrade to version ios 7, but that requires at least 5 gb of available space and my device says I've only got 1.2 gb available. My music, photos and apps add up to about 6.5 gb, so I presume the operating system and other pre installed software consumes the balance of the +/- 13gb of space the device says it has.
    I bought 25 gb of iCloud storage and backed everything I have on the device onto iCloud, hoping I can later retrieve anything I need to delete to make space for the iOS v 7 upgrade. Am I correct about this? Is this how to clear space for the upgrade it hour losing any valuable pictures or music of favorite pps?

    Upgrading the iPad thru iTunes and a computer will reduce the space requirements on the iPad, since the download of the iOS upgrade installer and its preprocessing will occur in the computer. Also, the backup stored on the computer will be a mirror copy of all the docs and settings of the iPad, which is not exactly true of an iCloud backup. Plus restoring from it will be much quicker since no network access will be needed to access the data.
    As for where the storage space went, we had a similar issue a few days back with a colleague who wanted to upgrade his 16GB iPad3 to iOS 7.1 from iOS 5.1.1. After we removed all visible extra apps and documents, still could not get more than 3-4GB freed. But he recalled having stored two long videos that did not show up in the Videos app. Finally found them for some strange reason in the Photos app! With both backed up and gone, got almost 8GB back. Everybody happy now.

  • My start up disk Macintosh HD is full on my McAir OSX 10.9.4 memory 4GB. I need to clear the disk so that I can update it with the new software IOS 10.9.5 requiring 2.05GB. Need guidance on how to clear space.

    My start up disk Macintosh HD is full on my McAir OSX 10.9.4 memory 4GB. I need to clear the disk so that I can update it with the new software IOS 10.9.5 requiring 2.05GB. Need guidance on how to clear space.

    For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
              iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
    Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • More Apple Gobbledegook.  Cannot update my phone as message comes through "updating to iOS 7.0.4 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone.  Please change your media sync options to make more storage available"  What media sync options?  Where

    More Apple Gobbledegook.
    Cannot update my phone as message comes through "updating to iOS 7.0.4 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone.  Please change your media sync options to make more storage available"
    What media sync options?  Where are they ? How do I change them?

    Afraid, this doesnt help.  I've already unselected about 100 iTunes, resynced, and I still get the same message about 610 MB needing to be deleted.
    What is so magic about 610 MB as a number?
    Is this anything to do with iCloud? I was on the free 20 MB offeruntil last month and then got downgraded to 5 because I could n't see the need for paying for extra Cloud space.   Is this the reason why?

  • HT6598 Update to ios 8.1.2 requires a billion GB of space and when I finally managed to clear enough it fails without telling me why.

    STupid update has been staring me in the face for months, telling me it needs 6.2 GB of space to install when its only 1.4 GB large. After I finally remove almost half of my stuff I have the space required and I click install. The installation keeps failing without telling me why. Just a bloody popup telling me that it failed. Tried connecting to charger, tried rebooting. Nothing works.

    Feel lucky.  Lot of people are having wifi problems with 8.x.
    You should try to update from iTunes.  iTunes requires less space on your machine for the update.

  • 11.5.10.2 (patch 3480000) upgrade space & time needed?

    I am currently working on an upgrade to 11.5.10.2 from 11.5.9 and I ran into a out of disk space issue. I have cleared up some, but I was wondering how much more is needed? The current unpacked directory for 3480000 is 18GB and I have a total of 8GB free now. I did read in the 11.5.10.2 install guide that 24GB is required but that is for a new install and does not reference this patch upgrade specifically. I know it backs up files during the patch, so the file size might be dependent of how much space you are using unless it only backs up specific files.
    Also how much time does it require to run this patch? In looking for disk space requirements I have seen people reference 16 hour run times for this script, which is an issue since we remote in and the connection will time out if you don't focus on the window and move the mouse every ten minutes, otherwise you lose you connection and can't reconnect to the process that may or may not be running. (thus you can see the issue with something stopping in the middle).
    Thanks for the input.

    I thought maybe someone would have had an experience doing it that might know. To free up more disk space will require a major amount of shuffling files around over a very slow connection which I wanted to avoid if I could, but I didn't want to start the setup again without some idea if I had enough before I wait an hour just to find out I needed more.
    This is a single server/single node setup. I am currently doing this in DEV and going through the process taking notes etc in order to reduce the downtime on PROD when I do the upgrade there. I will read the document you referenced. Thanks for your input.

I just have a small connect about the CP, any reason you are keeping in on the DB node rather than the application tier (Node 1)? Rather than having the application tier filesystem on two nodes, it would be easier to move the CP to Node 1 and have one application tier file system node (assuming you have sufficient resources).

    The latest upgrade Maverick requires a MAC dated 2007 or later. Where is the date... It is NOT in "About this Mac".
    I feel an older upgrade than Maverick might be better for my machine?
    Is it possible to upgrade to ie, 10,7? or another recommended upgrade.
    How to proceed?

    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
    If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
    A. Upgrading to Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion or Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    B. Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • Update for iOS 8.1.2 requires 5.6 GB on iPhone 5S?

    I'm currently running iOS 7.1.2 on my iPhone 5S and my iPad 2.
    Is that 5.6 GB number really correct? That's pretty big on a 16 GB phone. Since my total user storage shows 12 GB, is iOS 7 consuming the bulk of that 4 GN difference, and I'll get that back after the installation? Or will the OS consume that 4 GB plus the 5.6 GB it's telling me it needs for a total of 9.6 GB out of the total 16 GB? That's 60% of the total. That sounds like a huge chunk to me.
    Curiously, my iPad 2 was only telling me that I needed 2.4 GB. Is iOS 8.1.2 twice as big for the 5S phone as it is for the iPad 2
    What's the story here?

    1. Yes. It accounts for both the compressed and decompressed versions of the update.
    2. Most of the space required will be free once the update is complete. If desired, update it from iTunes on the computer; most of the temporary files will be stored there instead of on the device.

  • IOS 7 upgrade failed

    I've tried upgrading my iphone 4 (model MC605DN/A) to IOS 7. After several hours of downloading and installing the process got stuck while rebooting.
    At this point the apple logo was visible and a thin progress bar. This progress bar froze for more than 30 minutes. I manually switched off the iphone (home + on/off). Hereafter I had to connect to itunes and reinstall IOS 6.1.3 and restore my backup and all apps. A lot of time wasted!
    Before this I've ugraded my ipad to IOS 7 without a glitch. This was also a very slow process, took about 3 hours.
    Is there an issue with IOS 7 upgrade on a iphone 4 or am I too eager to use all the new stuff apple has promised and should wait many more hours?

    t.a51,
    I think you were too eager.
    I've updated iPhone5's and iPhone4S' w/o any problems.
    The iPhone 4 will be slower for the upgrade.
    Did you do this over the air or via iTunes. IF you did this over the air, try iTunes because you can do a download only and then use your phone in the mean time.
    Then, after the software is downloaded to iTunes and you can just spend the shorther time required to the update.

  • Space Requirement

    Hi
    i got tables ,it needs to be moved to another database.... the DBA is of that database asking us to provide an estimation of how much space is required to locate that objects..
    I would like to know how we perfectly estimate space requirement for an object.
    Thanks in advance

  • Calendar Server attachment space requirements and/or quotas?

    We're preparing to upgrade/migrate from Calendar 5.1.1 to Calendar 6.3, and the attachment feature has started to make me nervous, because I can see some of our users potentially over-using this particular feature. So, the first question would be what kind of space requirements are recommended for calendar attachments. Basically, I'd like to get a feel for how much users at other sites actually use attachments, to see what kind of space we should have available for them.
    The second question is whether or not there is a quota mechanism for calendar attachments, to keep users from going overboard, or at least forcing them to periodically clean house.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Kurt

    I have all of my calendar 6.3 data components on separate ZFS file systems in a Zpool.
    Separating them out is pretty much what I've done, so that if one gets extraordinarily full, it won't impact the rest while we add some space.
    I have around 6500 calendars with a 500 MB main database with ~700,000 entries. Attachments store
    is not using much, but mostly because users probably haven't noticed they can do it in UWC I suspect. Most
    of the users who do do it would be users that use Outlook connector.We have about 67000 calendars (a mix of users, courses & resources) with the csdb dir taking up about 3GB. I imagine initial usage of attachments will be relatively low, but I have this nagging fear that people will be scheduling the next meeting of their student organization, and have the bright idea of attaching a 3GB DVD image of video from their last get-together. ;)
    Thanks,

  • Determining future space requirements

    Hello, I have been tasked with determining a clients future space requirements. We want to add enough tablespace files for thenm so they will not require any more for the next 2 years.
    What queries can I run to determine their current tablespace usage that will geve me the most accurate indication of how much space is being used and how much space is remaining as wll as the maximum size for all tablespaces.
    What other reports can I run to help me determine what files to add.
    Thank you.

    If you dont have benchmark then you can start collecting it now. The following query (from orafaq) will give you total, used and free space of tablespaces then start benchmarking the growth of them and then use that benchmark to have an estimate growth for x amount of time.
    SELECT /*+ all_rows */ Total.name "Tablespace Name",
    nvl(Free_space, 0) Free_space,
    nvl(total_space-Free_space, 0) Used_space,
    total_space
    FROM
    (select tablespace_name, sum(bytes/1024/1024) Free_Space
    from sys.dba_free_space
    group by tablespace_name
    ) Free,
    (select b.name, sum(bytes/1024/1024) TOTAL_SPACE
    from sys.v_$datafile a, sys.v_$tablespace B
    where a.ts# = b.ts#
    group by b.name
    ) Total
    WHERE Free.Tablespace_name(+) = Total.name
    ORDER BY Total.name;
