Error description

  • The wording "server database directory" used in "ANR1546W The
    available space for the server database directory (
    /home/tsminst1/tsminst1 ) is  less than 1GB." can be misleading.
    The message is referring to the server database directory where
    the server database 'meta' information is stored by the DB2
    database manager.  The wording "server database directory"
    doesn't imply the "server instance directory" or the "server's
    database data" directory.  ( which is the location specified in
    the DBDIR parameter in the DSMSERV FORMAT command)
    
    Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected: 6.1 and 6.2
    
    Initial Impact: Low

Problem conclusion

  • This problem is fixed. The server message is updated with
    the following message text and explanation.
    .
    ANR1546W Available space for the directory (path name) is
    less than 1 GB. If there is no space available, the server
    can no longer function correctly.
     .
    Explanation:
    There is less than 1 GB of available space in the file system
    or disk where the server database files are located.
    When a server is initially  created, with the
    DSMSERV FORMAT utility or with the configuration wizard,
    a server database and recovery log  is created.
    In addition, files are created to hold
    database information used by the database manager.
    The specified path is the location of the database information
    used by the database manager.  If there is no space available,
    the server can no longer function correctly.
    System Response:
    None
    .
    User Response:
    Add space to the file system or free up space on the
    file system or disk.
    .
    Affected platforms:  AIX, HP-UX, Sun Solaris, Linux, and
    Windows.
