Disk space is low in drive

Dear all,
In our IDES system it is indicating low disk space in SAP installed drive.
In that drive it contains SIDDATA1, SIDDATA2, SIDDATA3 and SIDLOG1 contents.
Our OS is Server2003 and DB is mssql 2000. I had tried shrinking the files in MSSQL level but it is not working for me. Still it is in Low disk space. Is there any way to delete the log files or any data archiving possible.
Is that we can delete the log files in SAP level.
Kindly guide me .
Thanks and regards,
Rakesh

Dear Rakesh,
First of all, what is the harddisk capacity of the machine in which IDES is installed?
In that drive it contains SIDDATA1, SIDDATA2, SIDDATA3 and SIDLOG1 contents.
Which are the directories which take space? if its SIDDATA1, SIDDATA2, SIDDATA3, you cannot reduce that. But if its SIDLOG1, you can.
Is there any way to delete the log files or any data archiving possible.
You can actually delete the old log files from usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE>/work directory. But thats not going to help much. you can archive the log files through SQL enterprise manager and shrink the log files.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Jazz

That normally occurs because someone has turned on system protection for the partition. I can't see your image just yet.
Check to make sure that has not happened.
The following image is how the system protection window should look
The following image is what you should see in your recovery partition if you have file options to show protected files. Anyhting else should not be there.

"Available disk space running low. Shuttting down session."

I've been running into problems on a few machines that I have installed e-Load on. When I start the stress test, I get into a few iterations and then suddenly, the test will stop running and I get the following message:
"Available disk space running low. Shutting down session."
Questions:
1.) What space is it referring to? The local machine or where the scripts are stored?
I can't seem to figure it out. The machines have more than enough space where e-Load is installed, over 10 Gigs free.
The scripts (repository) is on a shared network drive and that has 17 GB where the results are written to. Is there something I am missing?

And the following output from the bin directory:

PLEASE HELP!!! disk space is low message

i received a disk space is low message as i am working in my lightroom 5. i keep clicking ok and it does not let me get out of this screen. it is telling me i need to remove files or empty trash to make space. do i need to make space in lightroom or on my hard drive? please help, i have had this issue before.

25% seems pretty arbitrary and unreasonable.
With today's drive that means on a 2TB drive I need to keep 1/2 TB free. That means I am paying for 2TB with only 1.5 usable just to use LR. In my case where I have four 2TB drive I have to have 2TB free or equivalently have an entire drives worth of space (4*500M) I should not be using.
Even given that was true I get a similar message and it states I do not have at least 20M free on the drive where my catalog is. The drive where my catalog is has 800M+ of a 2TB drive free (exceeding the 25% rule).
And if you are talking about just the "C:" or "root" drive then I have a 250G drive with over 180M free. And neither my catalog or my pictures are on it.
Still looking for an answer.
It is very annoying to be in the middle of an edit and have the message pop up and stop the edit. Then you have to clear the message, undo the incomplete edit and start over hoping the message does not come back.
Any additional suggestions?

If I bring in photos from Iphoto, am I using more disk space on my hard drive. I dont want to duplicate my entire file. I have 26000 photos in I photo.

If I bring in photos from Iphoto, am I using more disk space on my hard drive. I dont want to duplicate my entire file. I have 26000 photos in I photo.

You have to duplicate the photos unless you want to use PSE as the external editor for iphoto. In iphoto, your photos are stored in a proprietary library, which should never be messed with by programs other than iphoto. Writing to the iphoto library from outside iphoto is the fastest way to corrupt it and lose all the pics it contains.
So you can either set PSE as your external editor and send the photos from within iphoto, or you must export the photos from iphoto to be able to use them outside that program.

Receiving an automatic notification from Windows Server when disk space is low

Hello,<o:p></o:p>
Does Windows Server 2012 R2 have any such functionality built-in to enable monitoring of disk space?
We have an old VB Script file that sends me an email when disk space gets low.
Also, the following post discusses the topic regarding Windows Server 2008:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/c9878861-6ba5-4d3b-b6b0-6e4b33c41853/notification-when-low-disk-space?forum=windowsserver2008r2management
I was wondering if there was any change regarding this in
Windows Server 2012 R2 .
Many thanks.<o:p></o:p>

Hi,
Windows Server 2012 stays the same on that topic, you still need some kind of monitoring on your disk space.
If you don't have a monitoring solution, like for example SCOM, you can for example with powershell do what you earlier did in VB script. Either you have a scheduled task that runs as often as you'd like, or you can utilize something called WMI eventing
to trigger on an event 'disk low' but thats a bit more complicated.
See below examples on some example scripts that you could use.

Hard disk space on your main drive to run system 10.6.8?

How much hard disk space on your main drive of a MacPro do you need to run system 10.6.8?
I also run Lightroom 4.4, and photoshop CS3
Thank you-

You need more like 50% free on the system.
you need or want 24-48GB RAM for CS6
You want to insure you do not use the boot drive for scratch which CS6 will and will use a lot and hurt performance
Having a couple SSDs on PCIe Sonnet Tempo Pro SSD $300 is a great place for L4/5 catalogue/library, or separate set for CS6 scratch
And all your media of course is not on the boot drive as well.
An SSD boot drive of 120GB $89 or larger, Some large/r SSDs for scratch or/and L4 of 250-750GB or even 1TB.
Lots of good tips on performance and configuring upgrade guides:

Low Disk Space in the installation drive

Dear all,
One of our test server, is running out of space in the installation drive.
Do we have any standard jobs/Tcodes to reduce/shrink the disk space of installation drive.
Please share your inputs,
Regards,
Younus

Hi,
Thanks Mark for directing the question to the right group.
Elaborating the issue: It is a test PI server and it has been installed in the D drive of the machine.
It was only one month ago the server was installed and now the system shows the error "Low disk space in D drive"
10-12 GB of free space was there earlier and even the server didn't have many messages going through it in this period.
Please help me with your inputs.
Thanks

Low disk space left on Q drive on T430s

I have seen a few posts where a few others have had this problem but so far I'm having no luck figuring out how to fix it. I bought this laptop for my wife and set it up yesterday with no messages. Turned it on today and it now says I have only 1.67GB left of 13.6GB.
How can I fix this problem... any help would be great.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Dan,
I'm not sure why my Q drive is running low on disk space, but have read that once a back up had been done that this drive can be deleted. I did the back up thing but part of me wants to save the recovery on Q in case I lost the back up disks or that maybe there might not have copied correctly. I just don't understand as to why the disk space seems to be shrinking. Such a pain when no one seems to have any idea as to how to fix it.

MSDTC Service Interrupted due to Low Disk Space in MSDTC Log drive (Cluster 2008)

Hi,
I am working on SQL Cluster 2008 along with MSDTC service configured for the purpose of Distributed transactions.
I was looking into cluster logs and found that there is fail over happened of MSDTC service. I have analyzed the event viewer logs and found the MSDTC service interrupted at particular time and same was restored automatically. Below is the
details of MSDTC logs captured:
Event ID: 4103, Source MSDTC Client 2
Description: Service: MSDTC$d02c9ba0-70c4-4b72-994c-30170ab14f2d is still running. Attempt to cleanup the service has failed.
I have gone through the Health status of server and found the cause of Service interrupt is due to high disk space utilization. I have verified the MSDTC log file but haven't found any error which indicates any issue from MSDTC service end.
Generally MSDTC log consuming 4 MB space and currently there is 5 GB disk space is allocated to MSDTC service.
I am still struggling to find the RCA... Please help on same.

Hi,
Event ID 4103 — Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator Service Startup.
You may try restart MSDTC service and then check the result. To restart MSDTC:
Click Start, and then click Run.
Type comexp.msc, and then click OK. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
Click Services.
In the Services pane, right-click Distributed Transaction Coordinator, and then click Restart.
The system stops and then restarts MSDTC.
To alternatively stop and restart MSDTC:
Click Start, and then click Command Prompt.
At the command prompt, type net stop msdtc, and then press ENTER.
At the command prompt, type net start msdtc, and then press ENTER.

Disk space running low... but not really.

I installed Arch on a 150Gb HD lately and I'm experiencing a pretty annoying thing regarding available space on the drive.
Here is some info:
fdisk
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104422 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 79 530145 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3 80 19457 155653785 83 Linux
ncdu
5.2GiB /home
1.3GiB /usr
. 250.6MiB /var
82.0MiB /lib
. 11.2MiB /boot
10.5MiB /sbin
. 6.0MiB /etc
3.9MiB /bin

! 4.0kiB /root
. 0.0 B /proc
0.0 B /sys
0.0 B /srv
e 0.0 B /mnt
e 0.0 B /opt
Everything looks good so far and I should have plenty of space left on the device to play with. But using Thunar in xfce I am told that I have only 350Mb free. This is confirmed by the df command and I can see that I have a huge kcore in /proc.
df
/dev/sda3 7655940 7267696 388244 95% /
udev 10240 164 10076 2% /dev
none 1033064 140 1032924 1% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1 101105 13014 82870 14% /boot
ll /proc
-r-------- 1 root root 1065349120 Mar 6 13:08 kcore
Now, I understand that the kcore file is a virtual file that really doesn't affect my available space. But yet, it does affect how eg Thunar operates as it doesn't let me use the gigabytes of free space that I should have available.
I like the simple partition layout that I'm using, but is there some way to let the system ignore kcore and show the correct available space? Or am I forced to reinstall and use another partition scheme and work around the kcore size?
Usually I use ext2/3 but this time I thought I'd try jfs. Can that have something to do with this fenomenon? I have never seen this before...

Hi,
“However the disk space on 'D' is running low everyday.”
Base on my experience, it most possible is your application cache full the disk space, or you have configured the unsuitable VSS back up schedule.

How to find out how much disk space left on hard drive OS 10.7.5?

Yes, this probably seems like a dumb question; however, after I installed OS 10.7.5, I noticed that the little bar at the bottom of each window which revealed available disk space has disappeared. How do I get it back? How do I find out how much space left on my internal hard drive?

Insufficient disk space for encoding. disk space on encoding target drive?

I keep having this message when I try to burn\enconde\build a DVD with DVDSP 4, I'm setting the Build folder in a external hard drive with 300Gigas free, so for sure is not the porblem...
Insufficient disk space for encoding. Please free up disk space on your encoding target drive
What should I do?? its kind of urgent!
Cheers,
Javier

Ah Ha!
I found this in a 2-pop forum - it may be the solution...
"Are you both using the DVDSP Background encoder? If so, make sure the *DESTINATIONS PREFERENCE for ENCODING is pointing to the disk drive that actually HAS the free space* - normally, it points to the SAME FOLDER where the asset is living. If you're short on space on that drive, that will trigger the condition you describe... - always maintain this free space "
