Permanent and temporary partition sizes execeeds maximum size allowed

I receceivd error 818
permanent and temporary partition sizes execeeds maximum size allowed on this platform
I'm currently using TimesTen 32 bit version running Solaris and I increased one of my data storage size
to
PermSize=1700
TempSize-350
which is around 2G.
The system has 16G of memory, and the shared memory is set to 0xF0000000 which is almost the max of 32 bit.
Does anyone know this error is a sytem limit (32bit), or it can be fixed by tuning the system paramter? The system limits section does not have any information on the partition size limit. Anyone has any idea?

That's correct, the 1 GB limit is specific to 32-bit HP/UX. All other 32-bit Unix/Linux platforms have a maximum size limit of 2 GB and as Jim mentioned this limit is such that:
PermSize + TempSize + LogBufMB + ~20MB < 2 GB
If you need anything larger you need a 64-bit O/S and 64-bit TimesTen.

Mix up between 'permanent' and temporary licenses

Dear all,
Up today all the 'permanent' licenses ( which we renew annually) were working Ok till we decided to upload a temporary license file into the system with more users to see if the system can support some functionality. Unfortunately, the newly uploaded temporary files had already expired - we delayed uploading them into the system. Now, even the 'permanent' licenses have just expired and users can login into the system but are not licensed to carry out any activity in the system.
Any help on how I can delete the new temporary license file and leave my old 'permanent' one although with fewer users will be appreciated.
Your suggestions and help is appreciated.
Regards,
Davis M Onsakia

Dear Gordon,
My license files had NOT expired because users have been working on the system since the start of the week and yet it was indicating that the licenses expired on 10th August 2009. Hence the only explanation i can give is that the temporary license file corrupted my other license file - may be SAP AG guys can explain this.
However, I have already sorted out the problem after my partner provided another license file - provided by SAP.
However, thanks for trying to help.

Maximum Partition Size for External Drive using DU

Hello,
I just purchased a 750g Maxtor USB drive for use with Time Machine. When I went into DU to partition and format the drive I was surprised to find that every time I went to create a single partition using all available space, the operation would error out. I was however able to create two partitions with the largest one sized around 650g or so. I was using the Mac file system.
This just seems odd to me. Does OS X have a maximum allowable partition size that prevents me from creating one large partition?
Thanks,
Robert

Hi Robert
You should be able to delete the partition, try again using the instruction in the following article:

HT5639 I am attempting to install windows 7 ultimate on a mid2012 production macbook pro using Bootcamp 5 in Mountain Lion. Whenever I set the partition size and tell it to continue, the program quits unexpectedly. I have done this about 5 times now. Sugg

The lead-in above pretty much states the problem. I am attempting to install Windows 7 from a disk, but that is not the issue. Boot Camp 5 just quits and reopens. I then repeat. Help.

I am about to run specialized GIS software that may or may not need the full machine resources. I am an attorney who uses QuickBooks for my accounting. The Mac version does not do as much as the Windows version. This is from both Apple and Quick Books professionals. I am using Parallels Desktop version 8 at this time. It does not support QuickBooks Windows version per Parallels. Any other questions? I am a highly competent PC user who is new to Macs. I am entitled to my own configuration choices. That said, I know when I need help which is now.
As to the free space issue I have 665.18 GB free space out of 749.3 GB on the drive. I am not trying to run the 32 bit version. I know that it requires the 64 bit version. Besides, it does not get that far in the process. As I said Boot Camp asssitant terminates unexpectedly as soon as you hit the continue button after setting the partition size. Therefore I conclude that it does not have a chance to see which version of Windows that I am using. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit version in the virtual engine (to use Parallels speak), but again Boot Camp would not see that since it is not running. It can't run at the momenet because Apple just installed a new hard drive and I have just restored the data from TIme Machine and Parallels needs reactivated, which I have not done yet deliberatley. With all of this addtiional information do you have any further suggestions? Thanks for your time and interest my issue.

Changing partition size and migrating to Leopard

My iMac currently runs OS 10.9 and has boot camp installed, but I chose a Windows partition size that was too small (only a few GB, enough to install Windows XP). I am now want to increase the size of the Windows partition and to install Leopard. What is the best order for me to change the partition size and install the new system? If the disk needs to be wiped clean to do this, what is the best way to back up the existing data and then to reinstall it. Would I use migration assistant?

If your beta Boot Camp Assistant hasn't expired, you COULD do this before you upgrade to Leopard. If it has, you can play games with the date, or you can do this after you're on Leopard.
Either way, if your partition is FAT32 you can back it up using Disk Utility, according to other posts (see especially backup/clone discussions in the beta discussion forum); if it's NTFS, Winclone is probably the way to go. If it's a real small partition, though, you might just start over, or back up only what's "yours".
On either the beta or Leopard, you'd want to back up or clone the current Boot Camp partition, remove it using BCA, create the new larger partition using BCA, and then restore the contents.
None of this requires wiping the MAC OS disk, it DOES essentially wipe out the WINDOWS disk. I don't think Migration Assistant helps here, but certainly haven't tried that.

Partition sizes and mount points

Are there any guidelines or recommendations for partition sizes, either absolute (MB, GB) or relative (%) for a fresh NOWS SBE 2.5 server for general office use - file, print, G'wise email, ifolder.
Which partitions should be separate?
I have about 450 GB to play with: 140 GB mirrored, 420 GB RAID 5
Thanks, James.

Hello James,
Refer to the Novell Open Workgroup Suite Small Business Edition 2.5 Issues Readme
2.3 Partitioning NOWS SBE 2.5
The pre-configured partitions selected by the install are currently the only supported partitions available. Although you can change file system types to increase swap partition size, new partitions are not supported.
The default partitions are:
/boot
swap
/ (root)
All data is in the "/" partition unless you intend to use NSS. NSS Pools must be created on an uninitialized disk or uninitialized logical volume so a LUN on your RAID5 array would be a logical candidate. For more information about installing NSS see the Issues Readme section 2.8 Installing Novell Storage Services.
Should you decide to deviate from the standard partitioning, the partition sizes you choose would depend on the number of applications you intend to install and the amount of user data you need to store and not so much on the number of users on the system. Every deployment is different!

HT1461 I created a partition and installed Windows through bootcamp. But I need to increase my partition size due to me needing more space on the windows side. Can I do this with bootcamp, and how do I do it?

Welcome to Apple Communities
You can delete the partition in Boot Camp Assistant or use Camptune to modify it

Solaris 10 Max Partition size

Hi,
I would like to know the maximum partition size that Solaris 10 can support/create.
We have a Sun StorEdge 6920 system with a 8 TBytes, based on 146 GBytes Hard Disks.
Is it possible to create a 4 TBytes partition?
if not, any suggestions are appreciated.

Look to EFI, allows filesystems built to large TB sizes if you needed.
Per SUN:
Multi-terabyte file systems, up to 16 Tbyte, are now supported under UFS, Solaris Volume Manager, and VERITAS's VxVM on machines running a 64-bit kernel. Solaris cannot boot from a file system greater than 1 Tbyte, and the fssnap command is not currently able to create a snapshot of a multi-terabyte file system. Individual files are limited to 1 Tbyte, and the maximum number of files per terabyte on a UFS file system is 1 million.
The Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) disk label, compatible with the UFS file system, allows for physical disks exceeding 1 Tbyte in size. For more information on the EFI disk label, see System Administration Guide: Basic Administration on docs.sun.com. "
Found this at:
http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/features/articles/solaris_express.html
So you may want to look into EFI, which is different way of partitioning the disk.

Partition Size Comparison of /usr Versus /opt?

I'm a fairly new user of linux, and have been on Ubuntu for awhile now. I've lately found it limiting for what I want to do, and like what I've read about Arch. I would like to do a clean install on a machine that has a 80 GB hard drive, and am trying to figure out partitions.
I've heard that Arch likes to install many programs (as it should) in the /opt directory, and others default to the more commonplace /usr. I'm wondering what amount of space I should allocate to each of thier individual partitions. As of now, I planned on doing something like this:
disc1 ext2 128 MB /boot
disc5 ReiserFS 384 MB /
disc6 swap 1536 MB
disc7 ReiserFS 8192 MB /usr
disc8 ReiserFS 8192 MB /opt
disc9 ReiserFS 4096 MB /var
disc10 ReiserFS ... /home
I was wondering if anyone knew the approximate proportion of progams installed in /usr versus those installed in /opt, and what size they typically should be? (I do realize I'm giving each section some overhead, but I'd rather be safe than sorry) Thanks in advance...

well.... personally I wouldn't separate them, as the partitions should really be logically seperate (/home makes sense as it carries settings over from install to install, /var can change rapidly, /boot runs the machine). However, I think some people do use seperate partitions for /usr and /opt.
The larger, comprehensive packages are installed to /opt - kde, gnome, xfce, mozilla, firefox, and some others - this probably won't get *that* far beyond that... I'd say at the very maximum ever it'd be around 4-5 GB.
As for your partition layout, it has some issues. your /home partition probably won't get that big - it's usually filled with config files, and possibly music files (I keep my music in a seperate partition, which is like 80% full ATM). More important is your "/" and "/usr" partitions - these should take up a majority of your drive....
my partitions look like this:
hda1 : /home/music 15GB
hda2 : /boot 50MB
hda3 : swap 1GB
hda4 : /home 4GB
hda4 : / ~40GB
that way there's no need to worry about what size /usr and /opt should be.
I'd suggest maxing out the "/" partition, as then you won't need to worry about space for /usr and things like that

Max GPT partition size for Windows 2008R2

Is the max partition size 256tb -64K? for 64k stripe size?? What is the max?

Hi Jared,
From Windows Server 2003 SP1, Windows XP x64 edition, and later versions, the maximum raw partition of
18 exabytes can be supported. (Windows file systems currently are limited to 256 terabytes each.)
GPT disks support partitions of up to 18 exabytes (EBs) in size and up to 128 partitions per disk.

Amount of temporary tablespace size used for index rebuild

Hi All,
I want to know approximate amount of temporary tablespace size used for index rebuild. I need this information to avoid the insufficient temporary tablespace error during the huge index rebuild.
Is there a query or procedure to find it out.
Thank you.

Hi,
While creating the index, the temporary segment is created in the permanent tablespace. So permanent tablespace must have sufficient space.

1.8TB Hitachi HDS722020: "Partition size is not a multiple of 4K"

I picked up a 1.8TB Hitachi HDS722020 external USB drive, for an enlarged Time-Machine disk. The box says that it's usable on a Mac, but Disk Utility doesn't seem to like it.
When I attempt to erase it, it sits there, indefinitely as far as I can tell, trying to format it saying, "Partition size is not a multiple of 4K." I am able to format it as MS-DOS FAT32, but not in any MacOS (Extended) format.
Since it seems to be complaining about partition sizes, I was able to it into one partition containing almost all of the disk content, and another, "junk" partition that I presumably won't use very often. Unfortunately, the smallest "junk" partition it would let me create was about 190GB.
So, waddaya folks think? Should I return it to the store as a bad disk, or is there any reason to think that it's behaving in some sense correctly?

Hello mr88cet
In Disk Utility highlight the external hard drives first icon on the left side list and select the Partition tab. Then decide on the # of partitions you want, then click the Option box and set the Partition map Scheme to GUID Partition Table. Now then you should be able continue to on with any multiple partition sizing (if more than 1 was selected) and format the drive Mac OS Extended (Journaled)...
Just follow the Disk Utility prompts, it's really easy after you've done it a time or two.

Boot Camp Partition Size/External HDD recommendation

After updating software, hardware, downloading Boot Camp Asst, and installing Windows XP Pro (have not yet downloaded Mac drivers or software, nor have I submitted registration of my WinXP Pro software, still have 29 days), I realized that I set the partition size too small and need to resize it. I read in other postings that I can copy the Windows partition to an external HDD from the Mac OSX side, then run Boot Camp again, delete the "too small" Windows partition, then run Boot Camp again and reset the partition size larger. Does anyone have detailed instructions to do this?
Also, can anyone suggest an external HDD for this purpose? I need to be able to share files between a PC and my 17" MBP running OS X 10.4.6. Specifically, I need to share (for editing purposes) audio files created with PC-based software with the Windows side of my MBP. The PC has XP Pro and MacDrive6 for Windows installed. I read the "Sharing a FireWire drive between Mac and PC" document on "The X Lab" website and, based on this, am leaning toward getting a FW (not USB) HDD and formatting it in Mac OS Extended format (not sure how to do this but cross that bridge when I get there). Does this sound reasonable? When I run Boot Camp again and have to choose between NTSF and FAT32 should I choose NTSF? Will I also need "SharePoints" or other software to share the Mac's FW drive with the PC?
I may have the option to share and backup files over the workplace network (if I take the time to set it up). Does anyone know if there advantages/disadvantages to this option?
Thanks for answers to these questions. Any help would be very much appreciated. Best!

Frank,

VHD Size is Maximum Size Allowed Without Using All Space in OS

Hello - I have a Hyper-V VM whose maximum size allowed is 700GB. Currently, the VHD file size is 700GB yet the OS is only using ~400GB (300GB free). Shouldn't the VHD size be about 400GB instead of 700? Every other VM I have checked matches the size being
used in the OS.
As I was typing this I think I answered my own question. This VM has a fixed size and all of the other VMs we have are dynamic. I assume this is why? It is a SQL server so I guess it is fixed for better performance. I didn't set this up
Can I safely shrink the VHD down a little bit? When trying to get replicas of this VM, it keeps crashing the VM due to space limitations. It is on its own Cluster Disk but it only has a few GB free which is why I believe it is failing. How much free
disk space is needed where the VHD is located in order for replication to work?
This is our SQL server so I am a little cautious in what we do with it.
Thanks for your help,
Mike

Hi Mike ,
Based on my knowledge for vhd , when you delete a file then this file was not deleted on disk thoroughly , just give it a deleted tag (the "old space" was not recycled until there is no new space for writing).
I think you can not make it smaller via shrinking .
Maybe you can try to compress the vhd file ( "edit disk..." ), before you doing this please backup your VM first .
BTW , it is recommended to use fixed disk for SQL server .
