A minimum amount of space must be available in the directory where
you create a profile.
Manually verify that the required space
for creating a profile is available on AIX. A known problem in the underlying
InstallShield for Multiplatforms (ISMP) code prevents proper space checking
on AIX systems at the time that the product disc was created.
An error can occur when you do not provide enough space to create a profile.
Verify that you have, in addition to the minimum space required for a particular
profile, an additional 40 MB of space. The 40 MB of space is used for log
files and temporary files.
You must have
200 MB of available file system space in the directory where you create an
Application Server profile.
You
must have 30 MB of available file system space in the directory where you
create a deployment manager profile.
You
must have 10 MB of available file system space in the directory where you
create a custom profile.
Situations in which you could have insufficient
file system space
Profile
creation failure can sometimes occur in the following situations:
- Another user performs an action, such as copying files, that occupies
file system space at the same time that either the Profile Creation wizard or
the wasprofile command
writes to the file system.
- Another program writes to the disk at the same time that either the Profile Creation wizard or the wasprofile command
writes to it to create a profile.
- The Profile Creation wizard writes its
logs and the profile that it creates to the same file system at the same time.
- The wasprofile command
writes its logs and the profile that it creates to the same file system at
the same time.
Use the following recommendations to avoid profile creation failure:
- Ensure that enough temporary space is allocated for profile creation.
Some temporary space is needed for the profile creation logs. These logs can
be on a different file system than the file system on which the profile is
created.
- Ensure no other program writes to the file system space when either the Profile Creation wizard or the wasprofile command
creates the profile.
- Ensure no user performs actions that occupy the file system space when
either the Profile Creation wizard or the wasprofile command creates
the profile.
