Prime Infrastructure 1.4: Clear Disk Space

In order to reduce disk space usage on Prime Infrastructure I will reduce the System Data Retention period (for aggregate data) and "Background Data Collection Task" raw data  retention (for non-aggregate data).   If I now run  'ncs stop / ncs cleanup / ncs start, will this inmediately clear the disk space or does some other event clear the disk space?
Thanks.

ncs cleanup should be able to retrieve some disk space.
You can check the details of how it works from this document here.
-Thanks

  • G'day.  I am using iMovie 11 and need to clear disk space.  How can I do that using an external drive, leaving me the option to go back and make changes or access old events or projects from that external drive?

    G'day.  I am using iMovie 11 and need to clear disk space.  How can I do that using an external drive, leaving me the option to go back and make changes or access old events or projects from that external drive?

    The slightly bigger question is whether you want to move all movie content to the external drive (essentially meaning that drive will always need to be attached when you're working with your videos), or whether you just want to archive older videos off to the external drive.
    If you want to move all videos, then just move the 'Movies' folder in your home directory to the external drive, then create an alias of the external 'Movies' back in to your home directory. Now the 'Movies' icon in your home directory will point to the external drive and everything will just work (as long as the external drive is attached when you launch iMovie)
    If you want to archive older movies then each Movie should have its own subdirectory within your Movies folder. These can easily be moved off to the external drive, and moved back should you ever need to work on those movies again.

  • HT201612 clearing disk space in mac drive in windows partition

    I am using MacBook Air and having both the operating system installed (Windows and linux).
    My windows partition "BOOTCAMP" is having 79 GB (30 GB is still free) and Macintosh HD is of 32 GB (only 19.6 MB is free).
    I am not able to login to Linux operating system because of low disk space.
    I am able to login to Windows OS. I want to clear some dispace in Macintosh HD.
    I would request for some help in this regard.

    It is not clear how many operating systems you have, two or three. If you have a Bootcamp partition for Windows you can not have three partitions because Bootcamp won't work with more than two partitions. If you want to remove the Bootcamp partition to free up hard drive space you must use Bootcamp Assistant to remove the Bootcamp partition and return your hard drive to a single OSx partition.
    So try to better explain what you have and what you want to do.

  • It all started with 'clearing disk space'.

    Hey guys,
    So i'm having this grey blank screen problem.
    1) It started off while i was trying save some documents, didn't work so I went to Disk Utility, cleared the free space and then it was fine.
    2) I then tried to surf the web on safari. Some sites couldn't load and some sites did and all of a sudden, my mac just hanged.
    I tried to restart/shut down my mac through Finder and it just didn't restart/shutdown so I used the power button instead.
    Lo and behold, it took so long to boot and when it did it came to a blank screen.
    I did everything I could find on this support page.
    1) Ran it in safe nothing happened
    2) Ran it in recovery, nothing came out
    3) Then it came to a grey screen when I tried rebooting it so i did the PRAM thing and that brought my mac back up.
    So to check on it I did an 'EtreCheck' and here it is, seems to be... okay?

    Now I'm afraid to switch it off again, in the midst of writing a paper.
    Is there anything I should be worried about?

    To run Diagnostics, you can use the D key during power up.
    Using Apple Hardware Test
    Using Apple Diagnostics (for machines after June 2013)
    According to last EtreCheck you do not seem to have disk space issues. You can run it again to validate what you have.

  • WCS - Clear disk space

    I am getting a WCS notification that it does not meet the minimum requirements for disk space (minimum is listed as 30Gb). This has been gradually degrading over a period of time, i.e. a month ago it had 27Gb free but now has 26Gb free. The machine is a VM with 2x 50Gb drives, so space should not be an issue.
    I have already performed a defrag on the WCS database, but is there anything else I can to free disk space? E.g. are there any log files I can get rid of?
    Thanks

    The notification are warnings that you are running low on disk space. WCS does a check to see if the disk space falls below the 30GB threshold, if it does, an alarm is generated.  No major worries but do keep an eye on your disk space. If you are looking to clear logs out, you can stop the WCS services, delete the WCS7.0.164.xx/webnms/logs as they will be regenerated on startup again. Also try removing some of your older backups if you don't need them.

  • Recycle bin and 'clear disk space'

    a combination issue, in PC settings etc you have the option to manage disk space, mentions the recycle bin at the bottom, HOWEVER, it displays the bin as empty, while it actually has about 6GB in it over at least 1 of the 3 'drives' I have.
    also, if you search for the reyclebin it'll always return nothing, the only access to it is via the desktop folder assuming you actually have one, 'This PC' (aka 'my computer' or 'computer') are still accessible via search so why not the bin?
    both of these I find pretty stupid to the point I call them bugs, there been anything about this...?

    Hi,
    The storage occupied in recyle bin under PC settings is the same as the storage occurpied in the bin in desktop, that means if you empty the recyle bin in desktop, then the recycle bin at the bottom of PC settings will also display empty.
    And regarding to this sentence
    "if you search for the reyclebin it'll always return nothing, the only access to it is via the desktop folder assuming you actually have one, 'This PC' (aka 'my computer' or 'computer') are still accessible via search so why not the bin?"
    I don't quite understand this sentence, but search result should be related with "Indexng Options" under Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Indexing Options

    'same as the one on the desktop' well no, its not;
    why would you think I'd say otherwise?
    also, considering the indexing should already contain the desktop, that doesn't make sense either, and I definitely haven't turned off indexing anywhere.

  • Cisco Prime 2.1 - required disk space

    Cisco Prime 2.1 requires 300GB disk space. My customer has asked is there any way of reducing this requirement as they haven't enough space in their VMWare servers. Could it be installed on a 100GB VM?

    You can thin provision. Trying to change the overall profile though will most likely result in issues sooner or later. When you run out of disk space it will fail in ungraceful ways.

  • Using up disk space

    When I work on a project, I have gotten into the habit of creating a duplicate of the project prior to beginning edits, so if I have to go back I can grab the duplicate. As I progress I have duplicate 1, duplicate 2, etc.  Eventually I get a notice that I am our of hard drive space, so I eliminate the duplicates.  I am somewhat confused, however, since I thought projects were only markers to the media and therefore used up little disk space.  Could there be something else using up the disk space?  I thought once I had imported my media, that there would be very little disk space used until my project was finalized, and I always make sure I have at least 100 or so gigs available after my media is imported.  It is clear to me that I do not yet understand the basis upon which FCPX is working and any enlightenment would be appreciated as to how I can avoid that reocurring message when working on my projects "You are almost out of disk space"  requiring me to stop and clear disk space.

    Depending on what you are doing within FCP X and the type of footage used 100 gig can disappear pretty fast.
    HD footage grabs around 40 gig an hour plus any render files that is created along the way.
    My guess is render files are accumulating.
    Have a look in the top level of the drive where the Project is stored to check out the current size.

  • Prime Infrastructure 2.0 disk requirements

    The installation guide for Prime 2.0 says it requires 200 MB/s of disk throughput.  Does this mean 200 MB/s sustained IO?
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2.0/quickstart/guide/cpi_qsg.html#wp69178

    Hi Graham,
    What settings do you have checked when you navigate to here? 
    Operate > Alarms & Events > Email Notification 
    Also you can define within your network what the level of alarming should be through navigation to here: 
    Administration > System Settings > Severity Configuration
    It doesn't take much to become overburdened by alarms from Prime, I set only a couple of parameters as critical for switch and router state, and set to receive emails from those at this time.

  • Prime Infrastructure v2 - want to increase Swap space

    Hello,
    How can we increase Swap space at Prime Infrastructure v2.x? Do we keep TAC support? Will the installations with increased swapspace be still upgradeable?
    We monitor customer systems and there are CPI's as well via CA Spectrum. Some of them get into our attentention with Swap-Space alerts indicating to us we need to increase its Swapspace to improve the performance of the CPI's in question.
    thx for hints, Steffen 

    Yes Terry
    I did, but when iam restarting system at the time of initialization that is showing swapon: no such device or address [Failed]

  • Prime Infrastructure SSH password with space

    Hi,
    We have Prime Infrastructure 1.2 installed and now starting to populate the inventory with the devices list.
    However, it seems like the system does not accept password with space character inside.
    Anyone knows the fix / workaround to make this work?
    Thanks.

    Hi ,
    As Per my understanding there is No workaround ,you can try special characters ,however SPACES are Not allowed

  • Clear empty disk space

    When I use Disk Utility to Erase free space on my hard disk my whole mac grind to a holt with constant messages of 'your HD is almost full' - now it's obviously to do with how it clears the disk space but is there any way of stopping in grinding to a holt so early in the process and not alowing any apps to work?

    Why are you erasing blank space?
    If you are getting a hard drive full error, then you need to delete some files. You need ~10% of your hard drive free for the System and applications to work their behind the scenes magic.
    Disk Utility is usually run to fix problems, if you have other applications open DU will very aggressively take control of your hard drive. Don't run it with other applications open!

  • How do I clear up space on my scratch disk?

    I'm borrowing a friend's Macbook laptop so i'm less familiar with how Macs use hard drive space..
    Basically the drive is nearly full and I frequently get warnings about this that because it's full, I cannot work in Photoshop or perform certain other functions until space is cleared.
    I've saved tons of files from the HD to an external drive, deleted them and emptied the trash, as well as frequently purge my temporary Photoshop files. However these seem to be very temporary fixes and as I continue to work in Photoshop I keep getting warnings about the scratch disk being full despite that I haven't added nearly as many files as I've deleted. It doesn't make sense.
    I'm on a time constraint and it's not my computer so I can't get a bigger hard drive or anything.
    Is there ANYTHING else I can do to clear up scratch disk space??

    Probably worth running something like Disc Inventory X so you can see exactly what's taking up the space - could be some files you weren't aware of still lurking around.
