Re: Server out of data storage space
Geoff, I deal primarily with backups directly to tape and have seen this error message when the number of tapes in the volume is equal to the Maximum Scratch Volumes Allowed parameter for that storage group. I increase this value and backups go on. It might be helpful to see the storage pool details. Martha MIME-Version: 1.0 Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2001 07:11:54 -0700 From: Gill, Geoffrey L. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Server out of data storage space To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello all, This morning I noticed a node still in session with the server, which just finished after 9 hours. My first thought is that the switch setting has changed because the NIC is still set to 100/Full. I need to have someone check that, but I also found this. A messag in the client log as follows: 10/03/2001 00:34:27 ANS1311E Server out of data storage space. The log on the server has this message: 10/03/01 00:28:06 ANR0534W Transaction failed for session 352 for node CP-ITS-DOMAPP01 (WinNT) - size estimate exceeded and server is unable to obtain additional space in storage pool NOTES_DPOOL. The disk pool is not full, not even close. And let's make things clear up front, NOTHING has changed on the client or server. I do see the client is still at a lower level version of 3.1.0.7. I know this is not a supported client, and I have told them to upgrade, obviously with no luck so far. The server by the way is AIX 4.3.3 TSM 4.1.2. Has anyone any experience with this. The disk pool is set to overflow to tape when files are larger than 4GB. No tape mounts were noted. This has worked fine since the server was brought online a few years ago.

Re: Archive problems
Valerie, I can't find any documetation for these commands. Do you know where I can find it? I too have noticed the slowness on my AIX server and would like to do as you suggest, but I would like to know what the commands are doing prior.

Re: Atape device driver upgrade require reboot?
Richard, I just upgraded the Atape driver to 5.4.2.0 on an AIX 4.3.2 with a 3575 library and a reboot was not necessary. Martha Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2001 13:51:11 -0500 From: Richard Sims [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Atape device driver upgrade require reboot? To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm approaching upgrading the 3590 drives in a 3494 to 3590E, extended length capable, where the server level is 3.1.2.50 in an AIX 4.1 system. What I would like to do is boost the Atape and Atldd drivers ahead of the hardware upgrade, so as to have that much work done and assured before the hardware people arrive. If anyone has recently installed the current Atape driver to an AIX system, could you tell me if you were able to achieve that without an AIX reboot? In the past I had been able to upgrade without a reboot, but things may be different in current Atape levels, so I'd like to know what I face. thanks, Richard Sims, BU
