Description Execution of the fsecheck --fsc-media command seems to complete successfully, however, the
following message is written to the FSE event log:
ERROR: FAILED creating new FRI... ...No space left on device.
Explanation The file system that stores the temporary Fast Recovery Information files ran out of free space.
Linux specific
Fast Recovery Information is located in the directory /var/opt/fse/fri.
Windows specific
Fast Recovery Information is located in the directory %InstallPath%\var\fri.
The value of %InstallPath% depends on the choice made in the FSE installation process. It
defaults to C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\FSE.
In this case, the results of the FSE check job are incorrect and should not be considered.
Workaround Extend the size of the volume that stores the file system for Fast Recovery Information and run
the consistency check again. The formula for the estimated maximum size for the temporary
Fast Recovery Information files is given in the FSE installation guide for a particular platform.
For space requirements of the fsecheck --fsc-media command, you have to consider the
total number of full and open medium volumes (instead of the number of open medium
volumes) to calculate the nv variable.
Description During the execution of an FSE deletion job, warnings are not logged in the FSE event log file
for non-existing paths.
Explanation Paths specified in the Path variable in the deletion-policy part of an FSE partition configuration
file are not checked to see if they exist during execution of the corresponding FSE deletion jobs
on this partition.
Workaround None
Description After an FSE partition is removed from the FSE configuration, the partition-specific files are not
deleted.
(External FSE client specific)
Explanation The HSMDB, located on the external FSE client, is not removed during removal of the FSE
partition.
Workaround After removing the FSE partition from the FSE configuration, manually delete the corresponding
directory and its contents from the external FSE client.
Linux specific
On Linux FSE clients, delete the directory /var/opt/fse/part/PartitionName.
Windows specific
On Windows FSE client, delete the directory
%InstallPath%\var\part\PartitionName.
The value of %InstallPath% depends on the choice made in the FSE installation process. It
defaults to C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\FSE.
