Prime infrastructure 1.2 disk space messages

M. Wisely

Level 4

I'm regularly getting a warning stating that "The system is running low on diskspace, please refer to online help to perform disk cleanup.".

I looked at the appliance information and it stated that the fullest partition was the optvol and 52% was used out of 200GB.

Despite the fact that no partition was running out of disk space, I went through the cleanup procedure in documentation but this didn't change the disk space used or stop the message.

Anyone had this issue and resolved it?

Thanks

Martin

Hi Martin,

Prime Infrastructure triggers this alert if the usage of the optvol partition goes above 50%. In this case, the usage is 52% hence a genuine alert from the code perspective. But we found the   threshold to be low for the alert & the alert to be very nagging in the GUI. So the threshold was increased to 60% & frequency of the messaging has been brought down.

This has been fixed as a part of:

Bug ID: CSCuc20366  - PI 1.2 displays low disk space popup consistently & dashboard refreshes

You can download the patch, apply it & restart NCS which would take care of this issue. There is a readme file  inside the zip file  which would provide  specific guidelines.  The patch also  addresses three  more issues.

File name: pi_patch_1.2-2012Oct04.zip

I also own Prime 1.2 w/ low disk space errors. I'm not sure how to check the disc space though - need help with that step first if someone would be so kind? :-)

dir disk:/ 

 

Usage for disk: filesystem
                29002952704 bytes total used
                14337654784 bytes free
                45699481600 bytes available

 

In classic theme go to Administration -> Appliance and you'll see a list of partitions on the right side which will show the % used for each partition.

Doing a dir disk:/ will only show you the space on the localdisk partition
