Veritas File System 4.1 Administrator's Guide (HP-UX 11i v3, February 2007)

Kernel Messages

Appendix B 187

Each message is also written to an internal kernel buffer that you can view in the file

/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log.

In some cases, additional data is written to the kernel buffer. For example, if an inode is marked bad, the

contents of the bad inode are written. When an error message is displayed on the console, you can use the

unique message ID to find the message in /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log and obtain the additional

information.

001 NOTE: msgcnt x: mesg 001: V-2-01: vx_nospace - mount_point file system full (nblock

extent)

• Description

The file system is out of space.

Often, there is plenty of space and one runaway process used up all the remaining

free space. In other cases, the available free space becomes fragmented and unusable

for some files.

•Action

Monitor the free space in the file system and prevent it from becoming full. If a

runaway process has used up all the space, stop that process, find the files created by

the process, and remove them. If the file system is out of space, remove files,

defragment, or expand the file system.

To remove files, use the find command to locate the files that are to be removed. To

get the most space with the least amount of work, remove large files or file trees that

are no longer needed. To defragment or expand the file system, use fsadm (see the

fsadm_vxfs(1M) manual page).
