The Question is:
I have a directory that will not accept any additional files because it appears
to be full. Block usage is 123/123 and allocation size is set for 123. Is it
possible to increase the allocation size of this directory? The disk drive
has over 20,000 free
blocks. Thanks.
The Answer is :
The OpenVMS Wizard is not aware of an "appears to be full" error, and
would encourage the specific text of relevent message(s) be included.
That said, you have very little free space available on your disk, and
your remaining free space disk is probably quite fragmented -- excessive
disk fragmentation can prevent the expansion of directory files. (The
messages included with the failure will generally point to the specifics
of the failure.)
The usual course(s) of action involve freeing up disk space by purging or
deleting unneeded files, and/or freeing up space by relocating files to
other available disks, and/or by freeing space by moving the contents to
larger disk(s), and/or defragmenting the disk structure.
