Managing Disk Space
Recovery from “Out of Disk Space” during Update
Recovery from “Out of Disk Space” during Update
It is now possible to recover from “Out of Disk Space” during an Update. UPDATE will skip
any file if it cannot be added to LDEV 1.
You will see error and status messages on the console at the point the file is skipped and at
the end of UPDATE. At the end of the UPDATE, when the system normally boots, the system
will stop. The operator must boot the machine manually. Messages will stay on the console
including a form of the following message.
ERROR.
This UPDATE did not restore all files from the tape.(UPDERR
1001)
There were # files not restored because of out of disk space.
There were # files not restored for other than disk space
reasons.
There is more information about the error conditions in previous
messages.
START the system, create more free disk space and run this
UPDATE again.
Correct the problems and run this UPDATE again.
Correct the problems, START the system, create more free disk
space and run this UPDATE again.
END of LOAD(update).
What You Should Do
Follow these steps to correct the problem:
1. Determine the reason the files were skipped.
2. Start the system.
3. Correct the problem.
4. Shut the system down.
5. Do the UPDATE again.
Files Skipped because Out of Disk Space
If there were files skipped because of an “Out of Disk Space” error, look at the messages on
the console to determine which files were skipped.
1. Confirm that these three files have been restored to disk:
ISL.MPEXL.SYS, MMSAVE.MPEXL.SYS, START.MPEXL.SYS
2. Boot the system.
3. Free some disk space on LDEV 1.
4. Shut the system down.
