Need to Increase mount point disk space

Hello,
I do not know whether this is the appropriate forum to post my question.
I need to increase the mount /u01 disk space . I would like to club two mounts and make one File system to a make a bigger one. I do have 2 filesystems mounted on 2 disks as following.
Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c1t4d0s0 2012390 9 1952010 1% /u01
/dev/dsk/c1t14d0s0 2012390 9 1952010 1% /u09
Is there any way that I can merge these two into one filesystem to make a 4 GB filesystem of /u01 ?
Thanks

Hi
You have to install a package called Solaris DiskSuite where there is a utility called growfs which can grow your file systems that is it can add more space to your existing file system. Which OS do u have . If you have solaris 7 you have to install it from sun early access CD..If it is already installed , then you have to follow the procedure as given below.
The following example expands a nonmetadevice slice for the /u01 file system. In this example, the existing slice, /dev/dsk/c1t4d0s0, is converted to a metadevice so additional slices can be concatenated.
# metainit -f d1 2 1 c1t4d0s0 1 c1t4d0s1
# umount /u01
(Edit the /etc/vfstab file to change the entry for /u01
to the newly defined metadevice, d1.)
# mount /u01
# growfs -M /u01 /dev/md/rdsk/d1

Hi Marco_Ben_IT,
Do not install SQL Server to the root directory of a mount point, setup fails when the root of a mounted volume is chosen for the data file directory, we must always specify
a subdirectory for all files. This has to do with how permissions are granted. If you must put files in the root of the mount point you must manually manage the ACLs/permissions. We need to create a subfolder under the root of the mount point, and install
there.

Application cannot start because it cannot create needed files. Not enough disk space

Hi,
I have adobe director 11.5 and Macromedia MX 2004 versions installed in my machine. The projector created from the MX 2004 version used to work properly even after the 11.5 upgrade. I recently got the error "Application cannot start because it cannot create needed files. Not enough disk space", whenever I run the projector. Has anyone come across this issue before?
Thanks,
Nandhini

Where is the projector located? Do you have read/write permissions in that folder? This is a problem I have seen if I am running a projector on a network share where the projector will not be allowed to save files (temp files etc) in that folder. Even if you don;t think it needs to save these files, it will come up with this error. Try copying the file to your local machine and see if it works better. If you are already running it on your local machine, and in a "safe" location within your user folder, then this is not the answer you are looking for and something else is going wrong.

Increasing Allowable Scratch Disk Space

Hi Gang
I was a bit surprised when I noticed the remaining Free Space of a new Scratch Disk Assigment

Need to Increase swap and /tmp space

Hi All,
I have linux server with redhat 5.6 64 bit and i am installing oracle 11g r2 but in pre-checks of oracle it says that you have less space then oracle pre-requisite.
so i need to increase /tmp space as well as swap space.
Can any one get out of me from this problem?
Thanks,
Edited by: Viren Patel on Apr 30, 2011 5:18 AM

How much swapspace and tmp do you have?
How much physical RAM do you have installed?
Swap is usually a partition, but you can also use a swapfile.
For instance:
In order to create a 4 GB swapfile /swapfile:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1024 count=4194304
# mkswap /swapfile
# swapon /swapfile
add "/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0" to /etc/fstab
/swapfile - will create a file named 'swapfile' in the '/' directory. You can name any valid filename, e.g. /swap/myfile.swap
The entry in fstab will make swap available at next reboot. You can use 'swapon -a' to enable all swaps from /etc/fstab right away without a restart of the system.
Regarding tmp, you can try to create a symbolic link of /tmp to another directory on your disk. You should do this best in single user mode or with no applications running. e.g.:
# mv /tmp /tmp2
# ln -s /usr/tmp /tmp
# restart the system
or specify a different temp directory for the Oracle user:
# export TMPDIR=/usr/tmp

I need to free up some disk space?

I'm still not used to these apples so I don't know what to do. I bought a mac computer game for my child and it says "Requires at least 1 MB of free disk space" Free up some space on your local disk and then relaunch. I don't know where to go to see how much free disk space I currently have. Also I don't know what things I can safely removing to free up that space. Can anyone help me with this?
I have itunes with several songs on it .. . .. I'm assuming thats taking up some of the space but I can't really take any songs off because then my IPOD is screwed. But what other things can you remove to free up space? Please help thanks!!

Hi Jami320,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
As John said, you may want to move some of your files off your computer temporarily, until you can free up some space. You are in luck though, you already have one. You can use your iPod as a storage device, so you can put files on it as long as you have enabled disk use (Knowledge Base Document #61131 on Using your iPod as a Storage Drive).
After you have freed up enough space; before you install the game, you may want to free up more space for future use.
A great program to show you exactly what is on your computer is WhatSize.
If you are going to use WhatSize to delete any files/programs/applications, please be careful and make sure you know exactly what you are deleting and if there are any repercussions. WhatSize will show you files that you would not normally see; they are referred to as "invisible files". These invisible files are hidden from the users view because they would clutter the desktop and they hold vital information that if corrupted or deleted may cause problems. Please make sure you know what you are doing!
Have you deleted files that you don't use; like for my iBook, GarageBand. I use GarageBand on my iMac because it is much easier and faster, so I deleted it on my iBook. Have you tried the "erase install method"? The reason for doing this is because Mac OS X installs all the necessary fonts, languages, drivers, etc that people all over the world my need, by default. This tends to take up some room that you might want to get rid of (make sure first what you don't need and need). You erase and install your system software (Knowledge Base Document 301270 About Install Options w/ Mac OS X 10.4), and when installing, do a custom install. This way you can install the languages, drivers, and applications you want. The same technique can be done with iLife.
I hope that helps,
Jon

I need to increase the point size in a form to more than 18pt.

I have a PDF that needs to be edited continuely (Prices for a shop table) I am creating a form feild, but it seems that the point size can only be increased to 18pt. This is simply too small.
Any suggestions would be fantastic.

I just resolved this. You can just type the font size in the drop down box...I know.

Insufficient disk space or heap space on server

Has anyone face this problem before - what is the proposed solution or work-around.
==========================
" The server is running low on virtual memory. This could happen due to insufficient disk space or heap space on the server."

Hi
The message means exactly what it says. You are getting low on memory and Discoverer is paging to disk. This will cause severe performance issues.
On average you need to allot 85 Mb per Discoverer Plus workbook and 15 Mb per Viewer workbook that can be open concurrently. To this you can add the memory for the operating system and middle tier. After you have done the maths this number should not exceed 85% of your server's available memory. Of course, if you have other applications running on the server as well as Discoverer this will also have to be taken into account and is something I strongly discourage.
Can you work these out and report back how much memory you have on the server?
We may also need to increase the allotted disk space but first of all can you check the physical memory?
Best wishes
Michael

Increasing Disk Space on VMware ISE

hi,
i would like to increase the disk space for Vmware based cisco ise to 600gb.
Increasing the raw disk space is fine on VMware, but how will the ISE or Linux OS modify the partition to recognise the extra disk space
thank

Refreshing an old thread, but I was faced with this recently.
If you're prepared to roll up your sleeves with Linux, I've figured out a procedure. In my case I couldn't rehost the license since it's an NFR version - and yes Tarik is correct a restore doesn't bring in the license.
Some instructions here.

"iDVD needs more disk space to encode the remaining assets"

So I have to make copies of these counseling sessions that I'm doing for class and since I found out my Mac did not come with a DVD burner, I bought an LG External Super Multi DVD Rewriter. I used iDVD and created DVDs with my counseling sessions and was able to burn a couple that way. Then last week, I was going through my CDs in my Mac box and stuck the iLife CD in and it updated my applications. Since then, I've tried to burn a DVD from iDVD and it hasn't worked. A box comes up saying something like "not enough space for remaining assets" and when I click to get more information, it says "iDVD needs 7.765 GB of disk space to encode the remaining assets, but only 2.458 GB is available at "Macintosh HD".
Did I mess it all up by what I thought was updating the software? What can I do??

Hi - Double posting doesn't help - Medicine the same
iDVD and Mac OS need space to work to swap theirs temp. files.
My minimum is 25Gb free space on start-up hard disk - neither can use any other HDs
but only 2.458 GB is available at "Macintosh HD"
This is way to little - few things should be able to work and if so very slow and unstable.
Free up more space.
Yours Bengt W

How to create Mount Point in Linux

Hi,
I m new to Linux OS, want to install Oracle EBS R12 on OEL 5.6 . I have downloaded s/w and installed all required packages for OEL.
Now i want to create Staging directory at location /u01/StageR12.
Can anyone guide me for how to create Mount point /u01 and how to assign space of 53 GB to it.... ?
Reply awaited...

You're on the right path.
Keep in mind though what you need partition wise just for o/s install. You should have at least 3 partitions:
- a ?? GB partition for the / (root) mount (the size depends on what you will install and how much space you will need for running that s/w)
- a 128MB or larger partition for the /boot mount
- a ?? GB partition as swap space mount (typically rule of thumb is 2x RAM for 4GB and lower, else around 25% of total RAM)
I would not create separate partitions for the old-style +/u01+ mount points for Oracle. That part of the OFA (Oracle Flexible Architecture) standards are old and pre-ASM and pre- automated Oracle managed data files.
You need space for installing an Oracle Home. I do not see the need for a dedicated mount point for that. I use the root file system.
You need space for the actual database. If you use Oracle ASM, then I would create raw partitions (across disks) to be used for database storage. These will not be mounted or formatted. Instead these will be assigned to an ASM diskgroup (and striped by default) and used for database storage.
If you do not use ASM, then you need a cooked file system for storage of database file. In that case separate mount point(s) make sense. Also, it makes sense not to manually apply the old OFA standards, but instead use Oracle managed database files. In that case you need a single mount point (e.g./oracledb) - and set that as the base directory for Oracle to use for the database. Oracle will create an OFA compliant database directory tree and files under that base directory/mount point.
Keep in mind that the more mount points you have for the database, the more difficult your job becomes to manage storage. The easiest is a single mount point for the database and using Oracle to manage the OFA compliant side for you on that mount point.
Also, you cannot and should not attempt some kind of manual striping layout of the database across multiple mountpoints. This may have made some sense back 10+ years ago. It no longer does.

Physical disk space after ORACLE reorganization with brtools

Hi all! .
I perform reorganization after arсhiving with brtools. In db02 shows that free size in tablespace are increased but physical disk space not changed.
Can i make changes in online with brtools to increase physical disk space in reorganized tablespaces?
system ver. : ECC 5.0, oracle 9.2.0.7.0, BRTOOLS 6.40 (52)
Thanks for help!

Hi Andrey,
You need to reorganize whole tablespace, not only tables in order to reclaim the free space to the OS.
The prerequisite for online reorganization is:
Oracle 9.2 database or higher.
The prerequisite for online conversion of the LONG-fields into LOB-fields:
Oracle 10g database or higher.
Online conversion is supported for SAP kernel 7.00 or higher. For SAP kernel 6.40,
it is supported only in a restricted manner (see "Caution" in point III). Conversion is
not supported for SAP systems with a kernel lower than 6.40.
Check the note 646681 - Reorganizing tables with BRSPACE
Best regards,

Host disk space usage

Is there a way to get a report of available disk space for a host?
We do not autoextend our tablespaces, so whenever we need to add more space
, we have to shell into the OS (Unix) and run a "df -k" to see what mount points have space available.
Is it possible to have the OEM Grid send us this info via notification and how?
Thanks.

20gb of Disk Space Vanishes? On it's own?

Hi guys, I'm a long time mac user and have never seen anything like this.
I run a 2.53gz MBP 5,1. with 4gb of ram and 320gb HD. I have the drive partitioned with a 60gb NTFS bootcamp partition for WindowsXP that I use with Parallels 4. I use Time Machine to backup to a 2tb WD drive.
So, I've been running the machine all day long with approximately 24.5gb of disk space. I left my desk around 6:00 today and I just came back to find a low disk space error and saw that I only had 1.8gb left, and watched it drip down to 1.5, 1.3 and 1.1gb right in front of my eyes without doing anything at all! I rebooted and now the computer has been sitting steady at 5.7gb. I looked through my timemachine archive to earlier in the day and the last update was right after I left (with 24.5gb of disk space left) the next update is inexplicably at 1.7gb. I did get info on all the main folders in my root directory (Applications, Library, System & Users) and the identical folders now and there is almost no difference whatsoever in folder size! Yet, when you look at the bottom of the window in the time machine reference from a few hours earlier it says 24.5gb available, and then go back to the "now" window it says 5.7gb available...
I'm totally baffled. approximately 19gb of disk space just completely vanished and I can't account for the change or the increase in used disk space anywhere.
The only recent update was the Security Update 2010-001 that was issued on the 19th.
I have tried to restart. Reset the PRAM. Checked the SMART status using Disk Utility. Everything checks out.
The only thing I could possibly point to is an issue with Bootcamp and the NTFS drive. However I was not running bootcamp or parallels when this happened.
Time Machine was stuck at "Calculating Changes... (15%)" when I came back and the Time Machine drive is nearly full...but I don't think this should matter.
Also Time Machine hasn't completed a full backup since the drive was at it's original 24.5gb. I'm wondering if it got stuck when doing a backup and somehow is confused between what is backed up and what isn't and there is disk space being "held" somewhere by time machine somehow.
Any suggestions on what happened to the mystery 19gb?

The two swap files sound OK, you will always have at least one of approximately 60MBs. The sleepimage is also normal: it will be about the size of the RAM you have, and contains the content of your actual RAM. The point being that if you put your computer into hibernate, or for a laptop the battery runs out of juice, when the machine is again brought back into action it can resume from where it was when things were stopped. So that is normal.
It sounds like perhaps a run-away log file could be responsible. You might take a look in
/private/var/log
Arrange by size and see what you've got. My biggest one is the folder for DiagnosticMessages, at 5MBs. Everything else is in the KB range.
If that doesn't turn up the culprit you can use the Terminal commands.

Disk space problems

Hi guys, have looked around everywhere for some help on this topic but no-one seems to be having the same problem and it's quite hard to know what to search for:
Have been trying to free up space on my HD as I'm aware it's not good to have anywhere near only 10% of free space. The problem I have is deleting large folders and files and emptying trash is not increasing the available disk space at the bottom of the finder window.
I have even used programs like MacKeeper which found and deleted 30GB of unwanted/unnecessary files yet when I go back to check in finder (or Disk utility for that matter) disk space remains the same.
One thing I have noticed however is that "Macintosh HD" seems to have 30Gb of free space and my personal folder seems to have roughly the same amount of free space making around 60GB total free space but this is not picked up on disk utility.
I have seen some comments on the web about filevault causing problems but don't really know where to begin...
My computer does seem to be performing much better since I've started cleaning it up so am now wondering whether the free space has been increased but it's just being reported wrongly
Any input would be much appreciated..
Cheers!

Your FileVault is saved by OS X as a sparsebundle (something like "onjegolders.sparsebundle"), and each time you log into your account it has to be mounted. This mounted volume always expands when you create new files in your Home folder, but it doesn't shrink when you delete files. When you log out, OS X checks if there's free space in your sparsebundle, and it will try to shrink your Filevault to recover any free space.
For example, my FileVault is usually under 1GB. Last week, I had a lot of videos in my Home folder that I was trying to burn to DVD. It caused my FileVault to expand to 27GB. After I burned the videos to DVD, I deleted them and emptied my Trash bin, then restarted my computer. When I logged back in, my FileVault was back down under 1GB.
If your FileVault doesn't reclaim space after rebooting, you might try to verify/repair your sparsebundle (➚). Other people indicate it may be a matter of corrupted files (➚) preventing FileVault from shrinking. If you have less than 15GB of data in your FileVault, you could also just try turning off FileVault temporarily, and then turning it back on to force it to build a new sparsebundle.
