huge ucs archive

Hi guys !

I need your help!!

 

When saving ucs, huge files are saved for active devices.

But in case of standby device, small file is saved.

 

all of configuration is same I don't know why this situation occur..

 

plz let me know it why this situation occur...

 

thank you!

  • Can you check if you have enough space under /var/local/ucs directory. if Space issue then try to generate UCS file to other location

    Command : df -h ==> Space under /var directory

    Try to login via cli and run these command to generate UCS file under '/shared/tmp/

    tmsh save /sys ucs /shared/tmp/mytest.ucs

    Hope issue will be solved

    In most case, if pcap file wasn`t save in /var/tmp/ then that file also save in ucs file.

    So, find out .pcap file in all directory and clear.

  • This cased by policy versions/history, you can delete it manually using WinSCP navigate to /var/ts/dms/policy/policy_versions/ then delete all folders. or CLI by login into BASH

    cd /var/ts/dms/policy/policy_versions/ 
     ls -hl 
    rm -rf *
