Cleanup error

[George_Dodds]

Hi i've just ran cleanup to free up some space in /var on an old L class server we have running 11.00 and i got the following error

## Cleanup program started at 10/27/05 13:03:45
Commit patches superseded at least 1 time(s) on 'server1'.

ERROR: swlist(1M) encountered a problem displaying the installed software on 'server1'.
This problem must be corrected before continuing:

WARNING: Incomplete definition for the root (installation) "/",
beginning at line 0. The following attributes are not defined: products the products contained in the root
ERROR: The depot "server1:/" exists but is currently empty.

Is there anyway round this as i need to clear out the old patches to free up space.

Cheers

George

Hi,

Have you another swinstall session running?
then close is first.

Try also

swconfig \*

[Muthukumar_5]

Try as,

# cleanup -c

see man cleanup

-Muthu

[George_Dodds]

No other session running and i'm getting the depot empty message for swconfig as well

[Luk Vandenbussche]

Restart your swagent daemon

/sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
/sbin/init.d/swagentd start

[Arunvijai_4]

# swagentd -r will help

[George_Dodds]

On the right track Robert

ERROR: "lonpcs01:/": This operation will exceed the absolute limit
of disk space on 1 volumes.
* The analysis phase failed for "lonpcs01:/".
* Analysis had errors.

Here's a thread with a similar problem. The resolution was that someone either removed the complete /var/adm/sw/products directory or compressed files under the same. See if that helps.
