Adding a client on Ignite server

[Mogamat Thompson_1]

Hi There,

I am experiencing a problem adding some clients on an ignite server.

- they are on the same subnet.

I have successfully added others.

I have investigated this in knowledgemine and found a reference.

"Ignite-UX - adding a client to the server errors about disk space DocId: UIUXKBRC00008107 Updated: 9/28/01 11:25:00 AM "

I checked the space of var but found ample space. I, however, also increased it by at least 100Mb..anycase.

Could you inform me of any other things i should be looking for?

Thanks

Mogamat Thompson

What is the exact wording of the error message?

Hi Mark,

the error message.

ERROR: ":/":This operation will exceed the minimum free disk space on 1 volumes.

Thanks

You've checked /var but how about /opt?

Ignite install files in /opt, so make sure you've got plenty of space there.

Reading your error message, can you check your "/" (and not /var) client partition with bdf. It seems that it is almost full ...

This is worth 0 points. But when we spoke you asked me about the points structure. Here is the guide.

Hi Mogamat

Slept a bit on your problem here. I just had a thought. Instead of extending the "/" filesystem. Why do you not create a sepearate smaller lvol and mount it in the required position for the files that need to go to there.

This being an emergency cure you should test the ignite tapes / archives afterwards to see if they create "recoverable" images.

In the long run the root filesystem should be enhanced though.
