How do I increase the disk space ?

I recently bought solaris for Intel. I success fully installed
with dual boot. When I am trying to install other software I got
a message saying insufficient diskspace. How do I increase the
space or set up a new partition.

Hi ,
For your problem I would suggest following steps.
Use Format command to check whether any of disk partition or disk space is not utilised. If you have consumed all the disk space then only option to you is add new disk. If entire disk space has been utilised then you can't add more disk space on same disk. You need to have additional disk.
If you have any of the partion is still not used then you can merge the adjecent partition with it. Re-partition the disk. Here just ensure that if you have valid data on any of the patition which is going to merge with adjecent partition, then take backup ( ufsdump) as when you change boundary of partition you will need to make file system with newfs command which removes all data from that partition.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
SdD

  • Emails sent to me are sometime returned to the sender with the message "Inbox full" even though I have maybe less than 100 emails in the Inbox and I regularly compact them. How can I increase the storage space?

    Question
    Emails sent to me are sometime returned to the sender with the message "Inbox full" even though I have maybe less than 100 emails in the Inbox and I regularly compact them. I delete emails from the Inbox and the Sent and Trash boxes to overcome this. How can I increase the storage space to stop this happening?

    Hi terrybohle1938,
    Firefox is a web browser. It provides access to online content. Things like your email are handled by the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll have better luck consulting their documentation.
    That being said, deleting only email is a great way to free up space. Another option would be to purchase a "Premium" account if your email provider offers this service. Many times more storage space is offered as part of paid subscription.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • How can i increase the swap space in solaris 11

    On Solaris 10 I use to select how much swap space i need while installing
    On Solaris 11 it does it automatically? if it does, how can increase the swap

    You can easily create a ZFS volume, see "zfs create -V" for ideas. Then using the swap command you can add that space to your swap. You can also delete swap space with "swap -d" even though that does not delete the underlying ZFS volume.

    You can remove content from your iphone or you can update via itunes on your computer.

  • How do I delete a partition so that I recover the disk space?

    I partitioned my terabyte hard drive to run Mavericks (as well as Yosemite). I followed the Genius instructions from the local store and used Disk Utility to delete Macintosh HD Mavericks. The Disk Utility message said the partition was deleted but it is still there. Only Mavericks was deleted, not the partition. So I have over 600 GB there empty. How do I make that disk space available to Yosemite?

    MikaelK:
    Are you deleting the photos from the Main library section of iPhoto or from inside an album? If it's from an album you must use the CommandOptionDelete key combination followed by emptying the iPhoto trash.
    If you did delete the photo from the main library then I'm as in the dark as Lori.

  • How to I increase the space between the top of tabs and the frame of the entire window? It was fine until Firefox updated

    Hello,
    How to I increase the space between the top of tabs and the frame of the entire window? It was fine until Firefox updated and since it updated it reduced the space. Now the space is too thin which makes it more difficult to move the open window frame around when I need to grab something from Desktop. Image attached.

    In the image, see how thin the space is right above the tab? It was much wider before Firefox update so if any know how to make it wider again, please let me know. Thank you

         The disk space is running VERY low and I would love an idea. I make videos and upload them to youtube and I need space to do that. Thanks for your time!

    You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
    With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
    If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
    Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
    Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
    If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
    If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
    If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
    Look though other Apple Mail folders like the junk mail and delete the mail that is in there. Look through your sent items folders and see there is any mail in there that can be deieted.
    Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
    Other things you can do to gain space.
    Once you have around 15 GBs regained, do a search, download and install OmniDisk Sweeper.
    This app will help you locate files that you can move/archive and/or delete from your system.
    STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
    Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
    Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
    Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
    Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
    When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
    Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
    move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
    If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
    Good Luck!

    How to know the disk space -(filled and not filled) in Macbook pro? what is the easiest way to know about it? how can i know a % of disk space that is filled in my mac book pro (2012 model MD101)

    Hi ...
    What's taking up disk space >  OSX Tips The Storage Display
    Click your Apple menu  top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage
    Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.

  • HT1198 I shared disk space and my iPhoto library as described in this article. When creating the disk image, I thought I had set aside enough space to allow for growth (50G). I'm running out of space. What's the best way to increase the disk image size?

    Done. Thank you, Allan.
    The sparse image article you sent a link to needs a little updating (or there's some variability in prompts (no password was required) with my OS and/or Disk Utility version), but it worked.
    Phew! It would have been much more time consuming to use Time Machine to recover all my photos after repartitioning the drive. 

  • How can i increase the capacity of a window disk in parallels

    how can I increase the capacity of a window disk in Parallels

    Look in the Parallels help menus in Parallels or on the Parallels site. Your question has nothing to do with Windows compatibility.
    Once you get to the the proper menu item settings you will have a slider to increase/decrease the size. Just move the slider in the direction to increase.

  • HT1222 How do I increase the total amount of space I have on iPhone for things like iTunes n more music n like MusicTube n YouTube. Thank you in advance for any help that can be given.

    I am running out of usage space. How do I increase the total amount of space I have on my iPhone4S: for things like programs &amp; apps such as, iTunes &amp; more music &amp; like MusicTube &amp; YouTube. The only reason I have any space now is because the music that I had downloaded and synced onto my phone from iTunes I had to take it all off. I would really really love to be able to put my music back onto my iPhone. Currently I'm using apps like Spotify, AOLradio, and MusicTube to listen to music. Thank you so very much in advance for any help that may be given!

    Also to add to my original question: is what I'm asking even a possibility??? Meaning is there even a way to get more usage space? Or do I have to just continue to work within the confines that apple has preset on the phone?

  • How to increase the Heap space of Jdeveloper for about more than 512 MB?

    When starting JDeveloper, the application within JDeveloper is throwing the error message:
    "could not reserve enough space for object heap"
    and a windows popup with the following error message:
    "Unable to create an instance of the Java Virtual Machine Located at path: ..\..\jdk\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll "
    To resolve these issues, i know that adding the following in ide.conf , jdev.conf will help.
    AddVMOption -XX:MaxPermSize=512M
    AddVMOption -Xmx512M
    AddVMOption -Xms512M
    I have got 10 GB of RAM in my desktop machine and virtual memory of 15 GB (page size). I am not able to increse the heap space of Jdeveloper for about more than 512MB. This is really frustrating..I had to restart my jdevloper after 3 or 4 deployments.....Has anyone tried success in increasing the heap space in jdeveloper for about 2 GB?
    Regards
    Prasath.C

    Yes, i know that -XX:MaxPermSize has nothing to do with Heap Memory. I Just pasted all my configuration settings to know if some thing or the other has caused the issue.... After hearing few people who increased the heap space to more than 512m , i played with those settings again and figured out few things...Mine is Jdeveloper 11.1.1.4, 64 bit Windows 7 environment, 64 bit Java/ JDK.
    First, i was deceived by one suggestion in forum that, keeping max and min heap memory to same size always will yield in good performance...From that time on wards, i was always increasing both and was never able to move more than 512m..But this time, i kept the min memory as constand and kept on changing the max memory ..
    Jdev.conf
    AddVMOption -XX:MaxPermSize=512M
    AddVMOption -Xmx972M (I was never able to increase more than this size, though i have around 10GB RAM, if not Jdev doesnt startup)
    AddVMOption -Xms512M
    Ide.conf
    AddVMOption -Xmx2048M (here i was able to increase)
    AddVMOption -Xms512M
    But even then, i was not seeing my changed settings at the time of deployment...
    starting weblogic with Java version:
    java version "1.6.0_21"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_21-b51)
    Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 17.0-b17, mixed mode)
    Starting WLS with line:
    C:\Oracle\MIDDLE~1\JDK160~1\bin\java -client -Xms512m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Dweblogic.Name=DefaultServer ..........
    Then i changed again into
    setDomainEnv.cmd of my default domain
    set USER_MEM_ARGS=-Xms512m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
    Then i stared my deployment...this time i could see a real boost in deployment...and my page was launched in a fraction of minute..
    tarting weblogic with Java version:
