The Question is:
SLS V2.9D
When running a series of backups from a .SBK file, I'm getting the following on
an attempt to create a summary file for the 9th backup out of 12 :-
$ OPEN/WRITE SUM
SLS$SUMMARY_FILES:AXPD01.SUM_200212091940_DEV_TZ88_SINCE__DEVA01;
%DCL-E-OPENOUT, error opening
SLS$ROOT:[SYSBAK.SUMMARY_FILES]AXPD01.SUM_200212091940_DEV_TZ88_SINCE__DEVA01; `
-RMS-E-CRE, ACP file create failed
-SYSTEM-W-DIRALLOC, allocation failure on directory file
The backups then abort. This has worked OK on other nights. I suspect that some
limit (max files, max chars per combined file string) is being blown, but I
can't work out what. If this is not the correct forum, can you please tell me
what is. Also, is the
re any way to scan the patches for a particular error, like "-SYSTEM-W-DIRALLOC
in SLS"?
Cheers,
Ken McNulty
The Answer is :
Try HELP/MESS DIRALLOC
DIRALLOC, allocation failure on directory file
Facility: SYSTEM, System Services
Explanation: The file system failed to allocate space to increase the
size of a directory file. Because directory files must be
contiguous, this error might be caused by the disk being
full. More likely, there is not enough contiguous space on
the disk for the directory, so the free disk space is being
fragmented.
User Action: Reorganize the free disk space by copying it with the Backup
utility, or restructure your application to use a larger
number of smaller directories.
