Operating Systems SCO System hangs on data compression Post 79107 by RTM on Monday 25th of July 2005 11:58:20 AM

Seems like deleting things out of that directory means you aren't going to get good backups (it matters WHEN you are doing the delete).

Suggest you find more space (add a bigger disk, change your partitioning ) to make /home/compdir larger - the script is attempting to compress the data before sending to /home/compdir (assumption) so /home/compdir could be smaller than $BASE. If you set up /home/compdir to be the same size as $BASE, then you should not have an issue.

More importantly, supply your 3rd party vendor with the errors and have them fix this. Give them the size of $BASE and /home/compdir. They can tell you more quickly than anyone else what needs to be there and when you can safely delete files (deleting files should be part of the script unless it's saved for quicker restores).

cachefslog [-f logfile | -h] cachefs_mount_point DESCRIPTION
The cachefslog command displays where CacheFS statistics are being logged. Optionally, it sets where CacheFS statistics are being logged, or it halts logging for a cache specified by cachefs_mount_point. The cachefs_mount_point argument is a mount point of a cache file system. All file systems cached under the same cache as cachefs_mount_point will be logged. OPTIONS
The following options are supported. You must be super-user to use the -f and -h options. -f logfile Specify the log file to be used. -h Halt logging. OPERANDS

The example below checks if the directory /home/sam is being logged: example% cachefslog /home/sam not logged: /home/sam Example 2: Changing the logfile. The example below changes the logfile of /home/sam to /var/tmp/samlog: example# cachefslog -f /var/tmp/samlog /home/sam /var/tmp/samlog: /home/sam Example 3: Verifying the change of a logfile. The example below verifies the change of the previous example: example% cachefslog /home/sam /var/tmp/samlog: /home/sam Example 4: Halting the logging of a directory. The example below halts logging for the /home/sam directory: example# cachefslog -h /home/sam not logged: /home/sam EXIT STATUS
