Appendix C
Managing Disk Space
Recovery from “Out of Disk Space” during Update
186
Files Skipped Because of Other Reasons
If files were skipped for other than disk space reasons, determine the cause. There will be error and status
messages on the console. When a call to HPFOPEN returns an error status, that status is always displayed on
the console. This is the key to the cause of the problem. Whatever the problem, it must be corrected.
1. Correct the problems that have been found.
2. If there are still problems to correct, start the system and correct them.
3. If you started the system, shut the system down.
4. UPDATE again from the same tape.
Missing Messages
If error messages have scrolled off the screen and you need the information, try the UPDATE again. The same
conditions should exist and the same messages should be generated.
If This Does Not Work
If the steps above do not resolve the problem, contact your support representative. Trained Hewlett-Packard
Response Center engineers can recover some systems.
When to Continue
If you have experienced problems during an Update, you can continue when the following conditions are met:
1. UPDATE has completed successfully.
2. All files from the SLT have been restored to disk.
3. The system is up and running.
4. There is some free space on LDEV 1.
