Disk Space Error Messages
The update tools (UPDATE,AUTOINST, HPINSTAL, and Patch/iX) that modify your system require a minimum
amount of contiguous sectors within the first 4GB of disk space on LDEV 1 and non-contiguous sectors on the
system volume set to ensure a successful modification process. These disk space sectors are a subset of, and
are included in, the peak usage disk space requirements. The default disk space requirements are listed
below.
The tools search for the default disk space during the modification process. At any point in the process, if the
tool does not find the disk space it requires, you may see an error message. The error messages and responses
required vary depending upon when they occur in the modification process. For additional information, refer
to Appendix C, “Managing Disk Space,” and Appendix H, “Error Messages and Warnings.”
