  • Low disk space detected

    Hi Experts,
    We have a problem of Low disk space in our Deski Report Server.
    The Error Description is,
    Name: Low disk space detected on volume D:
    Description: Disk volume 'D:' is low or out of free space.
    when i tried logging into the server, i can see there are some child folders that have been created and that is consuming much space.
    Could any one please suggest how it should be analyzed and rectified.
    Its an Emergency, please help.
    Regards,
    Syed

    Hi
    go into the CMC under Servers, select the Desktop Intelligence Processing server and in its properties modify the temp path to another location ( you have to create the new folder manually). Restart the Deski server.
    Still I believe that you will get a problem if you do not free some place on your D drive ( I assume this is the installation drive) because this is the drive where the BOBJ stores both temporary and permanent files. Another option is to move the file repository on another location.
    (Assuming you are running BOBJ 3.x)
    1) Stop your SIA using the CCM
    2) Copy the file repository (Found under <BOBJ installation directory>\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\Filestore) to another location
    3) Start the SIA again
    4) Go to the CMC and under Folders change the directories for your Input and Output File Repository Servers. Restart the servers.

  • LMS 3.2 server - low disk space error.. Upm.db increasing rapidly......please help

    we r facing problem of low disk space error......upm.db file incresing 1 to 2 gb per week.
    if this continues our disk will get full & system may get crashed...... pls help

    Probably most space is being consumed by CSCOpx\log.  To quickly cleanup some logs, you can manuall run the command:
    logrot_trunc c:\Progra~1\CSCOpx\log\syslog.log
    Assuming this is the correct path on your server.  You can also schedule log rotation to occur on a regular basis to avoid the logs growing past a certain point.  This can be scheduled under Common Services > Server > Admin > Log Rotation.
    Might also be a good idea to check if you have debugging turned on under the various modules in LMS to decrease the speed of the log growth by setting the logging to a lower level.

  • Powershell script to get the low disk space on the servers...

    Hi,
    We have many SQL & Sharepoint servers running on windows server. I need some Powershell script to get the low disk space on those servers and it should send an mail alert saying "Disc d:\ have less than threshold 15% free space".
    Awaiting for response.
    Thanks
    Anil

    you should be able to use this powershell script which you can run as a scheduled task.
    just change the details at the start of the script to point the script to the right location to create log files. you will need to have a plain text file containing a list of server names or ip addresses that you want to check drive space on.
    # Change the following variables based on your environment
    #specify the path to the file you want to generate containing drive space information
    $html_file_dir = "\\server\share\DriveSpace"
    #specify the path and file name of the text file containing the list of servers names you want to check drive space on - each server name on a seperate line in plain text file
    $server_file = "\\server\share\servers.txt"
    #speicfy the from address for the email
    $from_address = "[email protected]"
    #specify the to address for the email
    $to_address = "[email protected]"
    #specify the smtp server to use to send the email
    $email_gateway = "smtp.domain.com" # Can either be DNS name or IP address to SMTP server
    # The seventh line from the bottom (line 167) is used if your smtp gateway requires authentication. If you require smtp authentication
    # you must uncomment it and set the following variables.

    Hi,
    I believe these are the commands (round and do shell script) which causes this error.
    because it's not recommended to use commands of the osax "Standard Additions"  in the 'tell application "System Events"' block, although it works most of the time.
    Here is the modified script that does the same thing :
    set expectedNumberOfHardDisks to 2
    set minimumFreeSpacePercentage to 60
    set sendToAddresses to {"[email protected]"}
    set sendImmediately to false -- If this setting is false the message will be created but won't be sent until someone manually clicks the "send" button. Only useful for testing!!!
    set almostFull to ""

                   if percentFree < minimumFreeSpacePercentage then
                        set almostFull to almostFull & (get name of tDisk) & ", "
                   end if
              end try
         end repeat

  • 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

  • TMS Low Disk Space Warning Threshold

    Does anyone know what the threshold is for TMS to warn about Low Disk Space?  I can't find it in the documentation.
    Mine is giving me this warning now, and I'm wondering how much space I have to give it before it will be happy, likely by increasing the virtual disk size, so it would be nice to know my target, since that sort of thing requires some paperwork and I'd rather not have to do it twice.
    Thanks.

    Depending on the deployment size, it's recommended for the hard drive to be around 60-80GB per the TMS Install Guide.  You could move your SQL database off the server, if it's hosted on the same server as TMS, as well as deleting old server logs.  Here are some suggestions on how you can free up some disc space on the TMS server.

  • Low Disk Space in WSUS

    Hello,
    The size of content folder in my WSUS upstream Server is 170GB, i am installing updates in one language only and 46 products. its showing low disk space now. i used server cleaning wizard but it cleared only 2GB. I thing somthing is going wrong there. Help
    me to come out from this problem.

    Thanks for your reply and the link.  After my disk became filled to capacity by WSUS updates, I couldn't use WSUS's "Server Cleanup Wizard".  Then I found this thread and began to decline the superceded and 100% installed updates.  I
    got thru maybe 200 updates.  Now I can't even decline any more updates without getting a screen that pops up saying Error: Database Error, asking to reset the node.  This is the same screen that I got when I tried to use the Server Cleanup Wizard.

    Maybe this is the problem....

  • Low Disk Space Issue

    One of our ZCM servers has a low disk space and looks like most of it is being taken up by folders with package.cab files. The folder location is: C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\ScanFile This folder is taking about 10GB and I'm not exactly sure what these .cab files are for. Any help would be appreciated. The server information is Windows Server 2003 SP2 Running ZCM 10.3.3.44626

    these are generated when the DAU runs; it's a bug that they are not
    deleted, and a patch is on its way - meanwhile feel free to delete them
    yourself...

  • Low Disk space in C drive

    Hi All,
    My MII server showing  "Low Disk Space" error for every 10 to 15 days once. I think the log files been generated more.
    My "C" drive has about 99.9GB space.
    Let me know how to avoid it?

    I would first look at which files are being generated that take up the space before changing any settings.  However, there are a number of log files which can be generated automatically and which can grow rather large.  Please identify the version and build of your MII (and NW if applicable) system.
    Thanks,
    Mike

  • Low disk space in recovery disk (d) drive in window 8.1

    I continue to receive the subject warning. I have never added any files to D, but I have 32.3 MB free of 25.5 GB. I have Administrator privilrges but am unable to view the files on D. When I click on recovery, I get an HP warning.

    Hi @pjd10 
    I grasp that you are a low disk space error on recovery D.  I regret that you are having that difficulty.
    Here is a link to HP PCs - Error: Low Disk Space. You are running out of disk space on Recovery (Windows 8) that should guide you to resolving this issue.
    Best of Luck!

  • Does low disk space make my Macbook Pro act weird?

    Hi! I have an early 2011 15" MBP with a 750gb hard disk space. Just the other day, while I was using photoshop with my laptop, the screen went off so I had to reset it. My laptop acted weird after: doing a screen split (the right part goes to the left and vice versa), one time it had weird pixels that were scattered all over, recently, a blue striped screen. All of this froze my laptop by the way. And all of this happened after a few minutes of usage. And I noticed if I use photoshop, it would only take a little amount of time before it would act weird again compared to when I don't. All the times caused me to reset my laptop by holding the power button.
    Yesterday, it wouldn't boot past the gray screen after resetting about five times. But after it turned off by itself, I tried turning it on again and it booted normally. And I could use it normally again, but with extra care (using it beside an electric fan, checking the temperature with iStat pro).
    I tried the extended Apple Hardware Test but it told me no trouble was found.
    Another thing was, everytime my laptop froze and did the weird screen thingy, my laptop was hot.
    I tried to use it again yesterday to just surf the web, and after some minutes it was still functioning. But I remember one time I was only surfing the web, it did the split screen and froze after almost an hour or so.
    Also, my laptop heats up quickly compared before. And can stand being hot for a long time until now.
    I haven't used any heavy applications besides photoshop to test my laptop's weird behavior by the way.
    So I guess it's because of the laptop's heat. Because I can only use it for a very short time when using photoshop but I can use my laptop for a longer time when only surfing the web.
    I also noticed that if I was forced to reset my laptop and turn it on again, it would boot longer than normal. But if I was able to shut it down properly and turn it on again, it would boot normally.
    And, just a while ago, I remembered my laptop's disk space was only 14gb from 750gb (downloaded a lot of series since I bought my laptop). So maybe what's causing the heat was the low disk space. Just a guess.  So is it possible that my laptop is behaving weird because of the low disk space?

    The problem is back. But this time, it only happened when I used photoshop or played a 1080p video. I was using my laptop for almost 3 hours when i decided to use photoshop. It froze as soon as it started and made my screen display weird pixels. I restarted and tried to open photoshop again and this time, it froze. I did it the third time and after using PS for a minute, it did the split screen. After restarting yet again, I tried to play a 1080p video to just test my laptop. It froze as soon as VLC started. But when i only surf the web (which is the only thing I did before using PS), everything goes well. So I guess it really is the GPU and not the logic board or some other parts. I've decided to just have my laptop checked.
