Disk Space Analysis Is Incorrect
Your installation or copy operation runs out of space even though the
disk space analysis succeeded. Upon further checking, you find that the
results of the disk space analysis differ from the actual space available.
Resolution Possible causes of this problem:
• A control script associated with the installation has consumed disk
space by creating or copying additional files that aren’t accounted for
during analysis.
• Your target systems were not idle when the analysis was done and
some other activity (unrelated to SD-UX) was consuming disk space.
• The depot from which the product was installed or copied was
created by swpackage with the package_in_place option set to true,
and source files have been modified since the product was packaged.
The swverify command can be used to diagnose this problem.
Packager Fails
A swpackage operation may fail because of the incorrect use of the end
keyword in the Product Specification File (PSF).
Resolution The end keyword marks the end of a depot, vendor, product, subproduct
or fileset specification in a PSF. It requires no value and is optional.
However, if you use it and it is incorrectly placed, the specification will
fail. Check to make sure, if you use it, there is an end keyword for every
object specification (especially the last one).
