[INS-32021] Insufficient disk space on this volume for the selected Oracle

Folks,
Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC Grid using Installer whose location is: /home/.../grid/runInstaller.
I am on step 4 of 8 in the Wizard whose contents are as follows:
Oracle Base: /u01/11g_grid
Software Location: /u01/app/grid
Cluster Registry Type: ASM
OSASM Group: dba
When click "next" button I got this error:
" [INS-32021] Insufficient disk space on this volume for the selected Oracle home
Cause - The selected Oracle home was on a volume without enough disk space.
Action - Choose a location for Oracle home that has enough space (minimum of 3,017MB) or free up space on the existing volume. "
I test my "home" directory using the command: [ora11g@rac1 home]$ df -k
Its Ouput:
Filesystem: /dev/sda1 and tmpfs
1K-blocks: 20,308,020 and 848,184
Used: 18,888,968 and 0
Available: 370,816 and 848,184
Use: 99% and 0%
Mounted on : / and /dev/shm
I run another command: [ora11g@rac1 u01]$df -k and got the same output as above.
My questions are:
First, is "Oracle home" the directory "/home/..." or the directory "/u01/..." ?
Second, how to increase the space for the correct directory to be over 3017MB (Minimum) ?
Thanks.

Folks,
Hello. Thanks a lot for replying.
I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2).The Virtual Disk for each VM is 20 GB whose raw device is /dev/sda (partition /dev/sda1 is the same size).
In order to install Grid Infrastructure, I add 5 Hard Disks into the first VM rac1 and 10GB for each Hard Disk.Then create 5 ASM disks respectively as a Disk Group. Let me describe them as follows:
OS Phyysical file: C:\VM_RAC\sharerac\asmdisk1.vmdk (asmdisk2.vmdk asmdisk3.vmdk asmdisk4.vmdk asmdisk5.vmdk)
Corresponding raw devices: /dev/sdb (sdc sdd sde sdf)
Corresponding partition: /dev/sdb1 (sdc1 sdd1 sde1 sdf1)
Corresponding ASM disk: ASMDISK1 (ASMDISK2 ASMDISK3 ASMDISK4 ASMDISK5)
When I run Grid installer step 5 of 8, I select all of 5 ASMDISK as ASM disk group on step 5 of 8 in the Wizard.
The clusterware files are supposed to be stored in the ASM disk group.
But it seems that on step 4 of 8 in the Wizard, the installer install the Oracle Home /u01 into VM rac1 Hard Disk /dev/sda1 and get the above error message - not enough disk space.
My questions are:
First, Why does the Installer store Oracle Home /u01 in /dev/sda1 because it should be in the Disk Group /dev/sdb1 (sdc1 sdd1 sde1 sdf1) ?
Second, Does the Installer go wrongly ?
Third, How to have the Installer store the clasterware files in ASM Disk Group ?
Thanks.

  • INS-32021 : Insufficient Disk Space on volume for the selected Oracle Home

    Hi
    I am trying to install Oracle 11g on my Red Hat Linux 5 (VMWare). I have completed all the pre-requisites realted to Kernel settings, creating groups, users, home and base directories. When I started running the 'runInstaller' and started the installation, it gave me an error saying...
    'INS-32021 : Insufficient Disk Space on volume for the selected Oracle Home'.
    Anyone any idea what is going on?

    you haave to switch off vmware add new disk from vmware console. then using format tool you can add partition for unallocated space. and add them in volume.
    space increase by adding new disk.

  • CSA MC insufficient disk space

    Hello!
    There is a little problem - low disk space on CSA MC machine. Shrinking database doesn't help. And backups store on anouther logical disk so they don't take free space.
    As I understand the way is to "move" all CSA MC database to anouther machine by reinstalling CSA MC with "Remote Database" option. Am I right? So is there different ways to move CSA MC database files without reinstalling product?
    Thank you,
    Ann

    To free Up Disk Space on CSA MC (Insufficient Disk Space Event)
    Use the following procedure to shrink your database files and log files and increase the amount of free disk space on your CSA MC system. If your CSA MC event log contains an "insufficient disk space" message, this is an appropriate procedure for freeing up space.
    Delete old log files and old CSA MC database files
    Step 1 Stop the CSA MC and agent services.
    From a command prompt window, type the following commands:
    net stop Cisco Security Agent
    net stop Cisco Security Agent MC
    Step 2 Access the CSCOpx\CSAMC\db and CSCOpx\CSAMC\cfg folders and delete old database files with names such as: csamc.mdf.Vm.n.0.ddd, csamc_log.ldf.Vm.n.0.ddd, csamc_volatile_data.ndf.Vm.n.0.ddd.
    Caution DO NOT delete files csamc.mdf, csamc_log.ldf and
    csamc_volatile_data.ndf. (Files with no old version number suffixes.)
    Step 3 Access the CSCOpx\CSAMC\log directory and delete old log files of the form csamc.nnn.
    Step 4 Start the CSA services. From a command prompt window, type the following commands:
    net start Cisco Security Agent
    net start Cisco Security Agent MC

  • Insufficient disk space during index build?

    Hi All,
      I have a library of pdf documents on a network share that I am indexing weekly from my laptop (overnight).  Recently, the index build has failed with the error message "insufficient disk space".  I have contacted the server admin and I have been assured that we have many hundreds of gb free.  In any case, the available space is much larger than the size of the document repository.  As a test, I copied the entire library to my local hard drive and the index build worked perfectly.  I'm concerned that there is another network issue at play here that isn't apparent from the error message.
    I haven't found anything on Adobe's website on this error.  Can anyone help?

    Try emptying the TEMP folder. A lot of applications, including Acrobat use the TEMP folder as a temporary work space and it is limited by Windows.

  • Insufficient disk space-render mgr empty tho

    Hi,
    I have a 68 minute project which I edited. I took some time off from the project and came back and looked at it and also started editing a trailer for the same film. When I went to render either one I get this message "render error-insufficient disk space". I go to the render manager and it is empty.
    I seem to recall changing the settings for the scratch disk after I completed the long project because I thought for future projects those settings were project specific but I realize that is probably not the case and probably part of my problem. How can I find the old render files without the use of the render mgr or somehow assign new places to render? I tried checking one of the video render boxes(scratch disk settings) for a different internal hard drive and then re-trying rendering but the render mgr was still empty. I could try more places?
    I will say up front that my files for rendering are all over the place due to my teaching myself FCP as I worked and then each time I take months off I forget many things because I learn under the stress of the moment and then when I burn out and take a break most of my medium level editing knowledge of FCP goes away. I need to learn the underlying good practices for the future but it is hard when you have self taught and are really a director, editing out of necessity.
    Enough self pity-anyone have any ideas? I searched several pages back in the archives and found a similar entry but it seems my situation is different.
    thanks,

    Of course, there is the occasional problem of the renders going into the FCP program file itself.
    This seems to happen occasionally when someone removes their usual scratch disk and does not replace it with anything else. With the target folder unavailable, FCP decides to dump all the render files inside the FCP.app folder.
    Check your system disk free space and the size of FCP.app. Depending on how many localized versions you have installed, it shouldn't be much more than 400 MB or so.

  • TCS 5 Installation Problems-"Insufficient Disk Space"

    I've been subscribing to TCS 5 since May.  Recently, I upgraded to a newer MacBook Pro, and I've installed a copy of Windows 7 and I'm running it using VMWare Fusion 6.  Today, I finally downloaded the TCS 5 files from my profile.
    I ran into a problem when it came time to install the suite.  I tried continue the installer beyond the "pick a destination folder" step, but when I clicked the "Next" button, a pop-up appeared and said "Insufficient Disk Space," and it suggested increasing the disk size and trying again.  I increased the disk space of my virtual machine from around 60 GB to 128 GB.  I tried the installation again and no luck.
    Has anyone found a solution?  Do I need to increase my virtual machine's disk space further?  I can't seem to find anything that would allow for a workaround to this problem.  Any advice will be a big help to me, as I really want to start using these programs.

    I called tech support just now and he suggested that I try installing on my physical hard drive, rather than a virtual one.
    However, while running Boot Camp could work, I don't want to reboot my MacBook constantly to change between operating systems.  Also, now that I've used my Windows 7 product code once, I don't think I can reuse it.  I'd have to spend more money to obtain another copy of Windows 7.
    Could I download the files to another PC, install them there, and then put everything on a flash drive to take back to my virtual desktop and run the programs successfully?

  • Can't import photos from camera -"Insufficient disk space on volume"?

    Please excuse my ignorance if there is a fix for this that I haven't found here.... I reinstalled iLife '11 yesterday because iPhoto would not recognize the camera. Now it recognizes the camera but it won't import the photos. I've tried all the suggestions, trashed the cache, the preference file, restarted, created a new library and I still can't import the photos from the camera to iPhoto because it says "insufficient disk space on volume." I have plenty of space on my hard drive. I can import through Image Capture but why go the extra step when importing to iPhoto was so very easy before? Can anyone help with this?

    This has been reported - not sure if there ever was a solution or not - search the forums to find the threads
    you can try renewing the iPhoto preference file to see if that helps -
    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

  • Insufficient disk space on Aperture Library volume to import iphoto library

    3 Importing iphoto library to Aperture questions:
    (1) Finally switching to Aperture because too many photos to manage in iphoto. When importing iphoto library it gives me the message: Insufficient DIsk Space - "There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need an additional 83GB of free space."
    The photos are all on an external drive which has 150GB free space. I also tried moving the aperture library to another hard drive which has lots of free space. I want the Aperture library to reside on the external drive so I can share it between my laptop and desktop.
    I tried this at the apple store and it was going to work. I came home and it now says it needs 125GB free space. Is this a function of which computer you use to import the library? What can I do because I can't spend hours at the apple store if it may take that long to import all the photos from the library.
    (2) Is there an optimum way to import a large library, rather than all at once?
    (3)Used iphoto manager to create a project library from an iphoto library. Now have 2 good libraries to import, one with about 35k photos, the other with about 8k. The 8k will have some duplicates from the larger one. When I import that one I don't want to import duplicates, but do want to retain the organization and labeling of those duplicates in terms of which albums and events they are in. Is that possible?
    Thanks!

    Or use Aperture's built-in and suggested way to deal with the problem of a Library outgrowing your system drive: make many of your Image's Originals referenced rather than managed.
    Aperture lets you store any Image's Original on any locally-mounted drive.  Moving your Image's Originals from inside your Library (in which case they are "managed") to outside the Library (in which case they are "referenced") is easy -- as it moving them back.
    The two main complications that arise from using Referenced Originals are:
    - you must back up your Referenced Originals in addition to backing up your Library.  Backing up your Library _does not_ back up your Referenced Originals
    - you must not make any changes to your Referenced Originals with any program other than Aperture.  _Do not_ use Finder to move, rename, etc.

  • Insufficient disk space for render. What does this mean?

    In Final Cut Express, I received this message.  Insufficient disk space for render. Please free up space & retry. Does this mean not enough space on the finished project? Is my project too long? How can I free up space?

    If you haven't done so already, you can empty your Trash bin on your dock.  But, you do not have enough disk space on the target drive  to save your project.  You'll need to delete files to free up space or save it to another drive.

  • Adobe Bridge CS5, error when creating contact sheet "There is insufficient disk space..."

    I am running Bridge CS5 for the first time and I receive this error when attempting to create a contact sheet. "There is insufficient disk space to complete this operation." The image files I am using are web optimized and very small. The error even occurs when attempting one small image. I have gone back to using Bridge CS4 and it works just fine. Any help?
    Thanks!

    I think I narrowed this down to having a network volume mounted with a share name of "Users".  The strange thing is even you if unmount the volume you will still have problems.  However, if you avoid mounting the volume entirely (from boot) it will be OK.
    The solution, it appears, is to rename the sharepoint to something other than "Users".  This worked for us.  I'm not sure if it matters whether the server is Windows or Mac OS.  In our case the sharepoint was an AFP volume on Mac OS.
    We had other errors related to Bridge such as "unable to create folder" and the path in the message appeared to be /Users/currentUser/.....  which made no sense at all.  However, if Bridge was internally trying to use /Volumes/Users (the mounted sharepoint), it would not only not find "currentUser", but it would not have permissions to create that folder either.
    So, another possible solution could be to grant file creation rights on the network volume "Users".  Another not-so-great idea.
    Hope that helps someone else!

  • Why am I getting a message "Insufficient Disk Space"

    I installed a new hard drive yesterday, and used Time Machine to restore all the information from my old hard drive.  Today I tried to open iPhoto and had a message that it was not found so I used the install disk for iPhoto and reinstalled.  I have my former iPhoto Library, but when I try to import new photos from my desk top, I get the message "Insufficient Disk Space" "iPhoto cannot import your photos because there is not enough free space on the volume containing your iPhoto library".  I don't understand since I have 354 GB available on my hard drive. What do I need to do to fix?

    That's an indication that the library is damaged. Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Error: Insufficient Disk Space (but my HD has plenty of space)

    I am getting the following message when trying to import my vacation photos from SD card to Aperture.
    "Insufficient Disk Space
    There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library volume to import the selected items. It is estimated that you need at least 447MB of additional free space."
    Does anyone know what this means?
    I have plenty of room on my HD. How do I add to my Aperture Library volume?
    Just looked and my Aperture Libary is 53.77 GB.

    Please advise your hardware and workflow info in some detail. Specific Mac, RAM, hard drives or SSDs, where the Library is located, how full (in %) each hard drive is, OS/app versions, etc. so we can help you to troubleshoot your problem.
    Folks have lots of good reasons for not upgrading OS or app versions. Personally I try to always delay updating versions, and did not go to Lion until 10.7.4. However if you are still on 10.7.1 like it says in your sig I do suggest that you seriously consider upgrading to a newer version of the OS.
    Given that you are currently having problems I do recommend that you report the full hdw/sw/workflow info here before doing anything dramatic like upgrading the OS. Any suggestions that we make while ignorant of your full info may lead in the wrong direction.
    Thanks.

  • Insufficient disk space on launching Aperture 3

    In the last couple of days I have been getting an error message on launching Aperture 3.1.3. It is running on a Snow Leopard system, 10.6.8.
    The message reads: "Insufficient disk space.There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library Volume."
    I have 100+ GB free on a 750 GB drive on which that particular library resides. ( I have several libraries due to the large number of raw photos that I have, somewhere north of 60k) It doesn't matter which library I choose, I get the message.
    I am NOT trying to import more files, nor am I trying to upgrade any libraries. I am just trying to launch the app. It does launch after I dismiss the message. What is going on, and how do I get rid of this message. I am having a hard time believing that 100 GB of free space isn't enough for Aperture.

    What I was thinking, and this probably confirms it, is that 100 GB free is not enough to allow the upgrade to a 750 GB Library.
    First check to see if you can successfully click to open one of those that have 3.1.3 as version.
    It did require an upgrade, but I don't rmember it taking very long.  I recently clicked to open some that were 3.1.2, and it took no time at all -- but they were small.

  • Erroneous "insufficient disk space" error with WaveStudio 7

    This has been bugging me for over 2 years. I get the "Insufficient disk space" error with Vista x32 and x64 and now with Windows 7 x64 when I've edited a wav file and then try to save it. I have plenty of disk space.
    I've searched till I'm blue in the face but cannot find an answer and am tired of the lame work-around. I know how to copy and paste the entire edited wav into another file and then save it. It's annoying, but it works. What gets me is why is this not fixed?
    Running CTWave.exe as administrator does not work. Running in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode does not work.
    I have been a faithful Creative Labs user for more years than I care to remember, but this one is shaking my faith. Is there anybody who can explain why this happens, or offer a fix?
    Many thanks and keep on rockin',

    You may wish to try these steps in order to solve your issue:
    1. Make sure your computer has the latest Java runtime. To do this, just google search "Download Java", go to the first URL and download that free software. This step should solve most of the "insufficient disk space" problems.
    2. If step 1 failed to work, you can open "My computer", right click on the hard disk you were trying to write your files into. From the "File System" tab, check to see it's "NTFS" but not "FAT32".
    3. If the above two steps do not work, try creating a new partition from your primary hard disk. To do this, click "Start" -> then right click "My Computer" -> "Manage" -> "Disk Management" -> Make sure you shrink a new volume for at least 50 GB to 100 GB free disk space, again please have the NTFS file system. Once you successfully created this new partition, do a format then try writing your music files onto this Disk.
    4. I think the above 3 steps are able to solve your issue. However, there's a bug I found sometime back when Win 7 first released. You can try creating a "temp" folder in your primary system drive, writing any files in there should have no problem as long as disk space is sufficient.
    5. I certainly do not hope that error was caused by your anti-virus programme, but if all failed, you may want to consider temporarily disable your anti-virus software, and if everything works fine, you might want to switch to a new anti-virus programme.
    Cheers.
