File System is full

[Srinivas Dutt]

While running our SCADA application with Oracle 9i as database on HP-UX System, the file system becomes 100% and when I removed the Global Database (identified by name ECDB) and tried to create it again, it displays that sufficient space is not available. How can this be solved?

[Mark J McDonald]

Add more disk space?

"Add more disk space?"

Probably a good idea ...

[Luk Vandenbussche]

You can also make your datafiles and tablespaces smaller when you recreate the database.

[Steven E. Protter]

Shalom,

More disk space, probably a great deal more will be needed. I'm sure the application documentation will tell you how much disk space is required.

maybe you have a lot of archivelog files or old backup files who can be deleted.

[Ted Buis]

I assum you have done a "bdf" and identified which file system is full, and it is a separate file system just for your SCADA application data.

You may be having a space problem.

[Geoff Wild]

Was the database down and no processes running on "the Global Database" prior to you removing?

If not - it i still locked - and untill all those processes are killed, you won't be able to reclaim the space.

fuser -cu /your/file/system

to check, and fuser -cku to kill

If they won't die, you may have to reboot...
