DiskInfo: Error (FreeSize)

[steffany]

Hi

There is a warning showing 0 freedisk and then back again with the memory. (HDD is plenty of memory)

I got a log from my device device HPE integrity rx2800 i6

11:20:01.797, [DEBUG] Cmd:cmd /c "rsh user123 -l user_manager write sys$output f$getdvi(\"dsa0\", \"freeblocks\")"
11:20:02.642, [DEBUG] Ret:
11:20:02.642, [DEBUG] Get User345 DiskInfo: Error (FreeSize)

Hi @steffany,
    I have not worked on Open VMS. But I found some light on your issue.  Post1 and post2 may help you. Along with posts, please refer this Open vms document (Page no.50).
First, you can try with analyzing the disk without repair. so that get the proper detail and error. After that, you can analyze with repair.

   This warning comes from what, exactly?

> plenty of memory)

   I don't know what any of that means. Disk storage and memory (RAM)
are two different things.

> I got a log from my device [...]

   What, exactly, produces this log?

> 11:20:01.797, [DEBUG] Cmd:cmd /c "rsh user123 -l user_manager write
> sys$output f$getdvi(\"dsa0\", \"freeblocks\")"

   So, someone/something on a different system is using "rsh" to run
commands on the (remote) VMS system?

> 11:20:02.642, [DEBUG] Get User345 DiskInfo: Error (FreeSize)

   I don't know what that means.  Did the "rsh" connection or command
fail, or did the remote command return a result of zero free blocks, or
what?

   I'd try to eliminate the middleman, and log into the VMS system
interactively. Then you should be able to run your command directly,
and see its results:

      write sys$output f$getdvi("dsa0", "freeblocks")

Or, for more info on that disk device:

      show device /full dsa0

Some general info on the system might be interesting, too:

      tcpip show version

   If the disk really is full, then you might need to delete some files
to get more free space.
