Common Modification Process Errors
Throughout the activities described in Chapter 5, “Modifying Your System,” several types of messages may
display. Below is a description of some of the more common error and warning messages and a general
description of the appropriate response to those messages.
Disk Space Messages
At different stages, AUTOINST searches for required amounts of non-contiguous and contiguous disk space. In
the section “3.6 Estimating Disk Space” in Chapter 3, “Planning for Your Task,” you verified if you had
sufficient disk space.
•If however, AUTOINST cannot find sufficient non-contiguous disk space, it displays an error message and
terminates.
•If AUTOINST cannot find sufficient contiguous disk space, it will display an error message and prompt you
whether to continue. You can continue while you are creating the CSLT, but you must find the required
contiguous disk space prior to applying the CSLT. Refer to Appendix C, “Managing Disk Space,” for
additional information on clearing disk space.
AUTOINST Disk Space Messages
The following messages are generated by AUTOINST. While the operating system is running, AUTOINST
attempted to put files into a holding area in the install group prior to calling SYSGEN to create a SLT.
Warning -- The Installer cannot find enough contiguous disk space
on LDEV #1 for UPDATE to update with the CSLT created by the
Installer. (INSTWARN #5)
You must create 60000 sectors of contiguous disk space on LDEV #1
BEFORE updating with the CSLT created by the Installer.
If you wish to continue with this installation and create the
disk space after the Installer is done (but before updating with
the CSLT) respond with ``YES'' to the following prompt. If you
wish to stop the Installer now to create the disk space, respond
with a ``NO''
Continue with the installation now and create disk space later >>
Y/N
Warning -- The Installer cannot find enough contiguous disk space
on LDEV #1 for UPDATE to update with the CSLT created by the
Installer. (INSTWARN #5)
You must create 60000 sectors of contiguous disk space on LDEV #1
BEFORE updating with the CSLT created by the Installer.
To recover from the above two messages, ensure that you have sufficient disk space before proceeding with
your modification task.
UPDATE Disk Space Message
The following message is generated by the UPDATE utility. UPDATE was not able to put all the files on disk.
UPDATE skips non-critical files and exists.
