Unable to run ISE Backup

Thomas Buergi — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 03:37:05 GMT

Hello All

If I run a backup on ISE it fails with the Message of Insufficient disk space. Actually a dir shows plenty of disk space available.

Any Idea what problem it could be ?

Thanks Thomas

# backup Daily_ISE repository bkp_apzhnise01 encryption-key hash xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It seems you're trying to take backup (including the Cisco ISE and Cisco ADE OS data). Could you please try to take only application data.

backup Daily_ISE repository bkp_apzhnise01 application ise

Also, are you running ISE on VMWARE? Is that built on 500 GB HDD?

Thanks for your reply

We are runnig it on a 3355 Appliance

I found the Problem, the root filesys is on 90% 😞 Don't know what has caused this.

.....So next time doing a show disk instead a dir will help 🙂

I guess I have to ask TAC to get the Root utility to gain access and to be able cleanup......

......or is there any other possibility ?

Thanks Thomas

yes, I'd also suggest you to open a TAC case so that they can apply root patch and help you clearing the root filesys.
