Different Free disk space values in ps cs6 beta and finder

OS X 10.7.3
Photoshop CS6 Beta shows less hdd space available than finder does. It is installed on a MBP, with an 128gb Crucial M4 SSD.
As you can see in the screenshot below Finder has 73.4GB available, Photoshop shows 46.22GB. This is too much a difference even if you think about the OS X size calculation since 10.6
It was also showing a similar amount during the installation (current amount + about 3GB)
I did a clean installation of the cs6 beta, no extra stuff added. no changes made.

seems like i found the mistake.
it's not photoshop related but OS X related.
Once you use Timemachine on a portable computer it enables MobileBackups.
This takes away some extra space for backups, but finder ignores that and shows you more space. once you disable that finder shows the right amount that photoshop sees too.

Where to see free disk space in Lion?

So where has Apple moved the "free disk space: XXX GB" so we can easily find it? I miss seeing it when I click on the hard drive window. I do know we can see it if we get info about the drive, but is there any way else to do it?

Are you talking about the status bar at the bottom of Finder windows?
When In Finder go to the Menu bar click on View then Show Status Bar.
That will put a bar on the bottom of your finder window and it tells you how many items in any folder you are viewing and remaining space on the Hard drive.

Variable free disk space

Suddenly, the amount of free disk space is jumping between 26 gB and 0 gB. This happens periodically, with almost no programs running. I am getting the error message "Your hard disk is almost full" when this happens. iDisk sync is off. I tried repairing permission and DiskWarrior. I have had no problems since installing Mac OS 10.5..
Everything has been fine until today. I installed Airport Utility 5.3.1 update ?yesterday, but that is not likely the issue. Running Activity Monitor did not give me the answer.

Firstly, I confirm that in LV 8.6, we don't have this problem.
Secondly, let me explain what defragment is doing. For example, if you write data to a file for multiple times, you'll probably get TDMS file with multiple segments and headers, so that the .tdms_index file will quite large. What defragment does is to re-organize your data in the tdms file and you'll get only one segment/header and a tiny .tdms_index file.
So, after you writing the file and you can make up a VI, read the channels in the file and write the data into a new TDMS file, only one time's writing will not result in multiple segments, so the new written tdms file is well organized. If you can't write all channels altogether once to a TDMS file, you can write one channel by one channel, if there are not too many channels. Does this make sense?
I recommend you to do so if you want to write a 2.0 TDMS file and benefit from TDMS high speed streaming in LabVIEW 2009 and it's a workaround not to use defragment but also get a "defragemented" file. I'm afraid the fix would not go with 2009 SP1.

Free Disk Space vs Mac Memory Usage

Hi,
I'm wondering if you might be able to help me - I'm so confused with this issue.
I have a MacBook 2008 with an upgraded 320GB HDD, with currently 203GB free disk space.
My back up disk is 120GB - perfect for a time machine back up of 117 GB of data. However, the TM says theres not enough memory because the full size of the back is 150GB? How can this be?
For some reason, the free disk space figure is different to the memory usage figures in About My Mac?
Can anyone explain to me why this is?
My other half uses this computer and has only pictures and files on it, no music or movies? So how can she have utilised 117GB of data? This was previously a shared Mac, but I've deleted my user acc since upgrading and wanted to make this Mac entirely hers.
Any help regarding this will be truly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Tarmak

CarbonCopyClone. It is "donateware" ... pay if you want to. Others use SuperDuper! (both a free and a paid version). I prefer CCC, but do not let that stop you from paying for SuperDuper if others convince you as both are very competent.
It makes a bootable copy of your system partition, and used repeatedly will make "incremental" backups that take far less time than the original backup. I have a TimeMachine backup (I consider it "secondary") and a CCC backup whic I consider "primary" and will eventually save me when my system partition gets cranky and refuses to boot -- use the option key at startup to choose the external disk to boot from.
When you boot from the external drive, which will have CCC running in it, you can then "clone back" to the new internal drive.

Query to find out the free disk space on C: drive

Hi Guys,
I am trying to create a query in Queries section under Monitoring, To find out the free disk space of C: drive.
Am using the below query, but it shows lot many fields, I need only Machine names of the collection and their
Free Disk Space on C: drive
select * from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK on SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.ResourceId = SMS_R_System.ResourceId where SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.DeviceID = "C:" and SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.FreeSpace > 1024
Please assist

The SELECT part of the query will govern what fields you are shown, so perhaps try:
Select SMS_R_System.ResourceID, SMS_R_System.NETBIOSname, SMS_G_System_Logical_Disk.FreeSpace
from SMS_R_System
inner join SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK on SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.ResourceId = SMS_R_System.ResourceId
where SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.DeviceID = "C:" and SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.FreeSpace > 1024

How Can I Get the Amount of Free Disk Space Using space using windows 7 please share example using GetDiskSpace

How Can I Get the Amount of Free Disk Space using windows 7 please share example using GetDiskSpace i have already studied http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9958B8E473C4EF1786256BBC0053B64F

Reading your question a bit more in detail, I doubt whether you are using Win32 API GetDiskFreeSpace function (for which my previous post is the solution) of Programmer's Toolbox GetDiskSpace function.
With reference to the second one, it works even with disks larger than 2GB but you need to use the proper formatting code to display the returned value. I updated my example to show total free space in the debug output window and added a comparison with 3GB value using UInt64TypeCompareUInt from the Programmer's Toolbox.

Finder not taking into account local backups when reporting free disk space

Time Machine in Lion (10.7.2) stores local backups of files on your laptop's hard drive when it is not connected to an external Time Machine backup drive. See this article for more information.
If you click on the Apple in the top-left corner of your screen and choose About This Mac > More Info > Storage, you will see exactly how much space your local "Backups" are taking (along with other useful info about how your hard drive space is being used).
Interestingly, the amount of free HD space listed there differes from the amount of free space Finder says is available (when you choose View > Show Status Bar to display it). The amount that it differs is exactly the same as the amount of the local "Backups." So, it appears that Finder is not taking those local Backus into account when it displays free disk space.
So, Finder is telling me I have almost 100 gigs MORE free space than I actually have. I would prefer Finder to show me how much space I have AFTER the local Backups are taken into account.

The article that you linked to gives the rationale for this:
Note: You may notice a difference in available space statistics between Disk Utility, Finder, and Get Info inspectors. This is expected and can be safely ignored. The Finder displays the available space on the disk without accounting for the local snapshots, because local snapshots will surrender their disk space if needed.

Free disk space recommendation

Hi,
I have a question about free disk space recommendation. My system now has <25% free space at ASP3, I can't see any problems until now, but I think that I can some troubles in the future depending on DB growth, it isn't?
Have you any tip about this? Are there any recommendation in IBM i5 redbooks?
Thank you!
Best Regards,
André Honma

Generally you do not want to go much higher than 70 to 80% utilization.
This is because the system may need the free space for system operations, temporary storage and to allow for spikes in storage that may occur when processing heavy workloads, such as temporary work space or for transient files, journal receivers, system logs and spool entries (QSPL as opposed to SAP's own spooling).
Certain systems functions, such as dedicated physical file reorganizations, have specific minimum requirements with respect to the need for free space.
At this point, you are at 75% utilization which puts you right in the middle of the range where you really want to examine what is going on.
Usually when you hit 90% or above you will start to get messages from the OS about high storage.
You can free up space in several ways. Only keep journal receivers for as long as you need them. Once they are detached and saved offline (tape/remote jounals etc) they can be deleted. You need to have a strategy in place for this, however. Our shop archives a full save on a weekly basis, and all journal receivers up to that point (with a small margin retained for visibility) are deleted.
In addition, we use Datamirror's High Availability product which scrapes the journal receivers to mirror the production system on a hot backup. The receivers must remain on the system until they are replicated (this is also true for other High Availability products). This is usually near real-time, but it can be an issue if you do not manage it properly. (Given our weekly archive strategy, this is not an overriding consideration for us, but it may be important for those with a different strategy.)
SAP uses the reuse deleted records feature of DB2, but sometimes excessive amounts of deleted records build up due to spikes, especially in files like VBDATA and related files, or after purging older transaction history or deleting old clients. You can periodically reorganize physical files to reclaim deleted space.
You can also use RCLSTG (Reclaim storage) and RCLSPLSTG (Reclaim Spool Storage) to reclaim some temporary space.
However, RCLSTG should only be used if there is a specific need for it, as outlined in IBM's technical note: <a href="http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.NSF/0/9373303619fb4b89862565c2007d4bcf?OpenDocument&ExpandSection=1">Overview of the RCLSTG Command</a>
Periodic IPLs will also reclaim space, including spool space as if RCLSPLSTG had been run..
If you have other libraries on your system, you can also see if they are being managed wisely using the same ideas as you would use for your SAP libraries.
Within SAP itself there are tools to manage tables that are within the scope of you various SIDs and clients. When SAP purges data, however, it only does a soft delete via DB2 SQL, and a physical file reorg as noted above may be required to reclaim space at the OS level.
As the previous respondent noted, you should keep track of the growth of your system and then take whatever steps are necessary to bring storage down or increase storage.
You may also want to consider your storage strategy. We had been using full mirroring, and we were able to increase our effective storage by going to RAID-5, and therefore put off the need to buy more disk for a time.
Good luck.

You do not have enough free disk space to create the database

Hello,
When I try to create a database, I have this error message:
You do not have enough free disk space to create the database. You need at least 1428480 kB on /opt/oracle, you have only 1179648 kB available, please alocate more free disk space.*

Thank you for your help.From the error you reported in your original post
You do not have enough free disk space to create the database. You need at least 1428480 kB on /opt/oracle, you have only 1179648 kB available, please alocate more free disk space.
SQL> select 1179648 i_have, 1428480 oracle_needs,

3 from dual;

 1179648 1428480 -248832So, yes, both numbers report the available space in slightly different terms, but what you need to be concerned about is how much Oracle thinks you neeed to have, which is more than you actually have on /opt/oracle.

Erase free disk space: 1 time or 7 times?

hey guys,
if I erase free disk space (with disk utility), should I do 1 cycle or 7? Why would there be a difference? In the first cycle, all data will be overwritten with zeros, right? (This does suggest a cycle is not 100% accurate, and you therefore need more cycles?)
And if I do 7 times a single cycle, is that the same as doing one time 7 consecutive cycles?
Thanks for making this clearer... (obviously this is not very urgent, I'm just wondering)

And if I do 7 times a single cycle, is that the same as doing one time 7 consecutive cycles?
No. A single pass just writes zeroes. Do it seven times, and it writes zeros seven times. The multi-pass command uses different bit patterns for each pass. One pass is sufficient, though. A modern drive packs the bits so close together that recovery of any data after a singe overwrite of zeroes is very unlikely. If somebody is that determined to get your data, they will go after you, not the disc. Use the Dictionary widget to look up the second definition of "rendition".

SQL Query for Free Disk Space

Hi, I have a requirement to produce several custom free disk space reports based around groups. This will be on a 2012 R2 management group.  For a given group, does anyone know the SQL tables and the joins required to produce
both the free space % and free space MB in one query?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

what did you means of free space % and free space MB?
does it means the HD free or DB free space?
I assume that its means DB free space and you may refer to the following SQL statement
select Path, displayname,ObjectName, CounterName, avg(SampleValue) as Value, getdate() as date
   from Perf.vPerfRaw pvpr
   inner join vManagedEntity vme on pvpr.ManagedEntityRowId = vme.ManagedEntityRowId
   inner join vPerformanceRuleInstance vpri on pvpr.PerformanceRuleInstanceRowId = vpri.PerformanceRuleInstanceRowId
   inner join vPerformanceRule vpr on vpr.RuleRowId = vpri.RuleRowId
   WHERE ObjectName = 'SQLServer : Database'
   AND CounterName like 'DB Total Free Space%'
   AND pvpr.DateTime > DATEADD(minute, -60, GETUTCDATE())
   AND Path in (select DisplayName + ';MSSQLSERVER' from OperationsManager.dbo.RelationShip r with (nolock) inner join OperationsManager.dbo.basemanagedentity bme

SMB errors copying from Windows Mac serv - "Not Enough Free Disk Space"

Mac OS X 10.5.5 server with 4TB usable internal space (RAID5 volume) shared out via SMB so that windows workstations (XP Pro SP3) on local subnet can mount them.
when copying files from internal drives on workstations to SMB share on the Mac fileserver, I get no problems. When copying files from external (USB 2.0) drives from workstation to server, i get constant errors of:
"Cannot copy x: There is not enough free disk space. Delete one or more files to free disk space, and then try again."
I've tried all different combinations of SMB settings with permissions and opt locks etc, but so far found nothing that works.
Anyone run into this and resolved it?

UPdate Update... after turning logging to high, i've found the following error in my SMB logs upon copying one of the seemingly random files (I can now make the error happen by copying the same file that caused the error)

Windows SMB Clients getting not enough free disk space copying error

I have searched and read most of the related topics in the forums, but no one seems to have a solution to this issue.
I am running OS X Leopard Server 10.5.4 and have several clients connecting via VPN to access file sharing.
The Macs use L2TP for the VPN, Windows uses PPTP. Everyone can connect and see the files on the server.
The mac clients connect and share the same folders via AFP. They have no trouble copying files to the server.
The windows clients connect and share via SMB. They repeatedly get an error while trying to copy files to the server.
Here is the error message:
"Error Copying File or Folder
Cannot copy FileName: There is not enough free disk space.
Delete one or more files to free disk space, and then try again."
So we have tried different files, different folders, but no matter what we do the copying fails from windows to the server. The server has 570 GB free - Only 20 gigs used.
I have removed the acl permissions, added them back in via server admin, and still have the problem. Windows clients are running XP SP 2 and the macs are 10.5.3 and 10.5.4.
Does anyone have a solution? Should we roll back to 10.4 Server?

I have searched and read most of the related topics in the forums, but no one seems to have a solution to this issue.
I am running OS X Leopard Server 10.5.4 and have several clients connecting via VPN to access file sharing.
The Macs use L2TP for the VPN, Windows uses PPTP. Everyone can connect and see the files on the server.
The mac clients connect and share the same folders via AFP. They have no trouble copying files to the server.
The windows clients connect and share via SMB. They repeatedly get an error while trying to copy files to the server.
Here is the error message:
"Error Copying File or Folder
Cannot copy FileName: There is not enough free disk space.
Delete one or more files to free disk space, and then try again."
So we have tried different files, different folders, but no matter what we do the copying fails from windows to the server. The server has 570 GB free - Only 20 gigs used.
