Complete Installation Size for OS X 10.5.2 server?

I'm evaluating the possibility of collocating an older G4 Xserve with a 16GB SSD HDD for purposes of relaying backups offsite...however the requirements dictate 20GB's of available storage. I'm planning on having additional storage (for the backups), but I'm limited to 16GB for the full OS X install.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the input. I did a few installs this weekend, tinkering with my setup and I think I've got it comfortably down to about 9.2GB's. I stripped out all of the printer drivers. For strictly offsite backups I think I'll probably set for the long run.

  • Can you set a max size for a folder on a file server

    I've got a G5 Xserve that I'm using as a file server running 10.3.9. I need more space on my array so I bought bigger drives and will move the data to the new, larger array.
    For the health of my drives, I want my array to maintain at least 10% free space so I would like for the people using the shares to only see 90% of the larger space. (I don't want to have to be the 'drive space' policeman 6 months from now when the RAID fills up again)
    I know I could create 2 partitions in diskutil but I'd like something more dynamic.
    Ideally I'd like to put my shared folders inside of a main folder and tell Server to only display 90% of the size of the partition when a folder from the partition is mounted remotely. That way people won't know there is a quota which keeps them from trying to copy data into a share that shows 10% free space.
    The shares are used by both macs and PCs so I'd rather not go with a solution based upon network protocol.
    Many Thanks,
    Paul
    G5 Xserve   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    There's no way I'm aware of to artificially display a different capacity/available space than what's actually there. If it's a 1TB volume, it's a 1TB volume and the OS isn't going to report that as 900GB.
    The only other solutions I can think of is to either enable quotas which will let you restrict the amount of disk space any user can consume, or attach a folder action to the volume where the script automatically checks the volume size whenever new files are added and takes action at the appropriate time (you need to define what that action is, though).

  • Incoming message size exceeds the configured maximum size for protocol t3

    Hi All,
    I've encountered an error as follow:
    weblogic.socket.MaxMessageSizeExceededException: Incoming message of size 50004000 bytes exceeds the configured maximum of 50000000 bytes of protocol t3.
    But the request message is only 3MB, why it is enlarged to over 50M?
    There is a For Each loop section in main flow, is it because for one loop, there will be a copy of request message?
    How to enlarge message size for protocol t3?
    Go to server/protocol and change 'Maximum Message Size' for AdminServer, OSB Servers and SOA servers?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Bruce

    Hi,

    And even after setting various values for -Dweblogic.MaxMessageSize , issue weblogic.socket.MaxMessageSizeExceededException was observed.
    To overcome the issue set Manual Service Migration Only as after several experiments and replicating the issue it was found out that in case of no available pinned services, must set the migration policies of the migratable targets on "Manual Service Migration Only".
    And once it is corrected; it was noticed that weblogic.socket.MaxMessageSizeExceededException issue also resolved.
    WebLogic Server can fail over most services transparently, but it's unable to do the same when dealing with pinned services.
    Pinned Services : JMS and JTA are considered as pinned services. They're hosted on individual members of a cluster and not on all server instances.
    You can have high availability only if the cluster can ensure that these pinned services are always running somewhere in the cluster.
    When a WebLogic Server instance hosting these critical pinned services fails, WebLogic Server can't support their continuous availability and uses migration instead of failover to ensure that they are always available.

  • After Installing - Cannot Complete Installs for Programs

    I installed Snow Leopard and it seemed to be running fine after I granted myself Admin access again.
    However, I tried running the installs for multiple programs including a security update to the OS, iLife and iWork - the installs get to "Preparing Installation" and freeze.
    I have tried leaving some of these installs up for up to 48 hours and there is no progress.
    Yahoo Messenger also freezes on sign in with a similar problem.
    How do I fix this so that I may use Yahoo Messenger and run installs again?

    I suggest you might try this:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If this doesn't help any, then reinstall SL.
    To upgrade iLife and iWork you will have to purchase the '09 versions. There is no free upgrade path from '08 versions.

  • Boot Lun size for W2012 installation

    Is there a rule how big a boot lun must be for a W2012 server installation; server memory size, e.g. 64GB / 128GB / 256 GB / 512 GB
    I have seen, that for a 512 GB size, a boot lun of 60GB is by far not enough.            

      Wont argue, taking time with customer I dont have to try and help you.  Typically when the "Unable to install" message is up there its because the MS Installation CD is not currently mapped in the Virtual Media due to the Drivers CD being mapped.    Map the drivers CD, install drivers for Storage->Cisco since we're using the VIC cards and booting from SAN.  Once the fnic driver is installed I can see the LUN but it says cannot install to it.   At this time I typically add a few more drivers to save time, like network for cisco, storage for LSI as well as chip set but you dont have to.   With the error showing you go to virtual media, uncheck the map driver.iso file, check the box to map the MS installation cd/dvd again.  Returning to the server installation the error still shows.   At this time I now click refresh below the list of drives and once that refresh has completed the error is gone but a new one shows stating the LUN is too small and needs to be increased to 150GB.   This size is because of page file required due to our memory amount, this will change based upon your memory for the blade, per microsofts documented amounts.   However we still wanted 40GB for the bootable LUN so we clicked "Next" despite the error and it continues and starts the installation.    This is our experiance, and at this customer site I have now done 22 servers this week, some 2008 and some are 2012 and all of them reacted the same, which is consistent with my past installs.

    I have been trying to install window 7 operating system through booth camp assistant, i will finish all the stages for window to complete installation it will hook. the installation cannot be able to complete and i really install windows on it, please i need an assistance on how to go about it.

    Right now I have 6 different systems installed. Windows XP, 7, and 8 plus Linux Mint, Commodore, and OS X Snow Leopard (for old times sake), all running on Mountain Lion.
    I recommend reading the user manual as it greatly helps getting through the steps, however an intuitive person should pick it up fairly easily.
    Thanks to BobTheFisherman for the link.
    There are other ways to get Windows on a Mac but I'm a big fan of open-source software.
    Give it a try. You might like it or it may not be your cup of tea.

  • Windows 7 installation hangs on 'completing installation' in boot camp

    hi
    i am trying to install windows 7 ultimate 32 bit using boot camp and each time i have tried (except on one occasion) the installation has hanged on the 'completing installation' stage. i initially had this problem, then one time it worked, but then i had to wipe my boot camp partition and start again, and since then no joy in installing windows 7 again.
    when the installation hangs it sounds like the install DVD is making a whirring sound as though there is an issue reading the DVD. but i have tried two different windows 7 install DVDs in both drives on my Mac Pro and i keep getting the same problem.
    i have tried installing without any peripherals plugged in, including my cinema display, but still no joy, except for that one occasion, when i am not aware of having done anything different.
    the boot camp partition is 32GB, and i have the same issue whether starting the installation using the boot camp assistant, or just booting from the Windows DVD and formatting the boot camp partition during the install.
    can anyone help me troubleshoot this?
    thanks
    nick

    On a Mac Pro with four hard disks, you would be better off devoting an entire HDD to Windows. You do not even need to start the Boot Camp Assistant application.
    However, that does not appear to be the problem. Perhaps the size of your Windows partition is a bit on the smallish side. Why so small? Have you tried a larger partition? Going larger would be a good experiment to help drill down to the installation problem.
    Try to eliminate anything under your control that could be part of the problem.
    At 32GB that's the borderline between being permitted to use FAT32 formatting and being required to employ NTFS. Presumably, you allowed the installer to use NTFS. In fact I think Win7 requires NTFS. Switch the partition size a little down or a little up to eliminate that as a possible glitch point. Just a thought and probably a stupid one but you never know...
    An afterthought: Can you get hold of a FireWire DVD optical drive. Maybe the internal drive is faulty.

  • How do I work around large AIR Installer file for app updates?

    I develop AIR apps which often come with many included files (pdf, doc, swf, images, etc).  These get quite large, Total Air installer size measured in Gigs.   Distribution is via DVD.  Currently I create sub-folders under my project and place the assets.  Works fine.
    The rub comes when I want to issue program updates.  The AIR update process would be great if I could just update my main program swf, but what I'm finding is that even if I'm doing a minor code update I still have to create this same multi-gigabyte AIR installer.
    If I were using a Visual Studio installer I'd just include some sort of run-once that would copy all the assets after the installer completed.  Then when building an update it would skip the 'copy all' part...but I can't see any way to do something similar with the AIR installer.
    So, to summarize, I'd like to be able to issue updates to my main AIR SWF without including all the assets again.  Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance,
    Greg.

    No, I don't have any recommendations. You would need to sign up for the AIR redistribution program. When you do this you gain access to some tools that help the process. http://www.adobe.com/products/air/runtime_distribution1.html
    The only warning is that you will have to create an installer for each of your target platforms (unless you find an installer product that is also cross-platform, of course).

  • When I turn on or restart my Macbook Pro Retina 15", my entire screen flashes completely bright yellow for a few seconds and then it goes to the normal Welcome screen.  How do I fix this??

    Hi Everyone,
    This problem just started today.  When I turn on or restart my Macbook Pro Retina 15" (Mid 2012 version), my screen is light gray like normal, and then after a few seconds my entire screen flashes completely bright yellow for a few seconds, and then it goes to the normal Welcome screen (where I choose to login as myself or a guest user).  This suddenly started today and has not stopped since.  This keeps happening every single time I turn on or restart my computer.
    Yesterday I installed all the Mavericks and other updates that were available in the App Store, so I'm wondering if this is related to that since this never happened prior to my doing those updates yesterday.  When I first installed the new OS X Mavericks (10.9.3) update, it went through the whole installation process (took about 10 minutes), and then during the installation I got an error message saying that it couldn't verify my iTunes application that was on my laptop, and then my laptop finished installing the updates.  Then once my laptop restarted, the App Store "Updates" section said that I had to do the whole OS X Mavericks (10.9.3) and iTunes (Version 11.2) updates all over again.  So my laptop did the whole installation again (took about 10 minutes, but this time I didn't get that "iTunes error message" during the installation process). 
    Now, when I go to the App Store "Updates" section, it says the following under "Updates Installed in the Last 30 days":
    -Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update (Version 5.05) installed May 15, 2014
    -OS X Update (Version 10.9.3) installed May 15, 2014
    -iTunes (Version 11.2) installed May 15, 2014
    -OS X Update (Version 10.9.3) installed May 15, 2014
    -iTunes (Version 11.2) installed May 15, 2014
    -Security Update 2014-002 (Version 1.0) installed April 22, 2014
    I'm wondering if this flashing bright yellow screen upon bootup is related to the fact that my laptop installed the OS X Update and the iTunes Update two times each?  Or is this new problem totally unrelated?  It's just that this problem started a day after these 2 updates were installed twice.
    My Macbook Pro Retina 15" (Mid 2012 version) is otherwise working fine at least as of now.  The only issue so far is this flashing bright yellow screen every time I turn on or restart my computer.
    If anyone could please help me fix this so that my bootup screen doesn't flash completely bright yellow anymore, I would be forever grateful! 
    Thank you so much for reading this and for any help you can provide. 
    hope everyone is well,
    Elaine

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

    I am trying to update ITunes from 10.4 to 10.5 I have tried from both the program, and from a download on Apple's website. Regardless, I get the following error messages: (1) Installation package for iTunes cannot be found. Try installing to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in a folder from which you can install iTunes.  I can't find this folder. I have tried to completely unistall iTunes through the Control Panel, but it wouldn't let me: I tried going directly to the files themselves, but cannot uninstall. Any help would be greatly appreciated. System OS: Win XP SP 3.

    Set the permissions for Everyone in the folder in which CCPackager created, to "Read/Write" enabled. This is strange since there is only an administrator account on the Mac (and that account already has read/write), but it seems to resolve the issue.

  • I'm unable to complete installation of Firefox 7 on Windows 7 as it keeps asking to reboot to finish and never does finish the installation.

    I'm in need of some assistance please.
    I installed Mozilla Firefox 7 yesterday but it has failed to install properly. It keeps asking me to reboot to complete installation but never finishes. I've tried without success to un-install it but it won't un-install either because it never finished installing. I've done a system restore to prior to the install but still have the same problem. I'm at a loss on what to do now. I'd like to fix this without having to format my hard drive or reinstall Windows 7. I've since also tried downloading via a mirror site and installing an earlier version (6.02) but as V7 hasn't finished installing I get stuck with the boot error which reads 'Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous version of Firefox. Do you want to do that now?' I've done that at least 10 times with no success.

    You gone about it the wrong way I'm afraid. For future reference; to update version 4.0 to 4.0.1 and for future editions, go to '''Help '''| '''About Firefox''' and then click the '''Check For Updates''' button.
    I think what you'll have to do now is follow instructions in this article to uninstall it: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_firefox
    Once you've achieved that goal, go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0.1] and download a fresh installation file to the desktop using either IE8 or 9. Save the file to your desktop when you see the prompt and then reinstall it from there.

  • After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I repurchased Garageband and I can't get passed the complete installation. I don't seem to have the "com.apple.garageband.plist" file that has been a common solution. Any suggestions?

    After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I repurchased Garageband and I can't get passed the complete installation. I've read through several posts that all reference the "com.apple.garageband.plist" solution. I don't seem to have the referenced .plist. Any solutions or suggestions?

    Did you upgrade from SnowLeopard?
    I can't get passed the complete installation
    What exactly is happening? Is GarageBand trying to download over and over again?
    all reference the "com.apple.garageband.plist" solution. I don't seem to have the referenced .plist.
    The property list stores your preferences, but also the settings from the last run of the application.  If that file is corrupted in some way, you might see third behaviour.
    You must have this file, for it will be recreated automatically, if it is missing, or you have a permissions problem with your user library.
    Perhaps you did look in he wrong place.
    in MacOS 10.7. or later the User Library is hidden. To find the Preferences Files use the Finder's "Go" menu:
    Quit GarageBand, if it is running.
    Click onto you Desktop to bring the Finder forward.
    In the Finder Menu press "Go" and hold down the "option/alt" key, until your user library appears in the drop-down menu
    Select "Library" and in the Finder window that opens navigate to the "Prederences" folder; move com.apple.garageband.plist to the Desktop.
    Log off and on again (don't skip that step!). Retry GarageBand and see if it GarageBand is now downloading the missing content properly.
    If that does not fix the problem, post back and explain in more detail what the download problem is.
    Why did you "repurchase" GarageBand? If you already owned GarageBand '11, it should be unnecessary.
