" VAR space running out and incapacitating the whole device"
Hi, regarding " VAR space running out and incapacitating the whole device".. to the point where device changes its state to "INOPERATIVE" where you can not see license nor provisioning any longer untill you restore VAR space. Is there a way to to increase VAR space , or is there a better way to manage VAR space ? Can there be an alert setup when VAR space would be approaching critical "available space" teshold? If so, how could one approach this solution ( if there is one ) ? Many Thanks in advance John
Space in /var on physical device
I have been trying to run a BIGIP upgrade and keep getting stuck at the final part of the install where it checks for space in /var. This seems to be when the config has been put into a ucs and it wants to extract it. We have symlinked /var/local/ucs to a different location but it still fails as it seems to check just /var. We have removed everything possible but cannot get it to a point where there is enough space to work. What solutions is there for this problem on a physical device? As I understand it you can only resize /var on a VE. Thanks in advance
VCMP Increase /var Directory
Hi all, I have seen K14952 in regards to increasing directories on a VE. I have also reviewed K24156414 regarding increasing the disk space on a VCMP guest, however this seems cover increasing the size of HD1 rather than any of the directories. Can K14952 be used to increase the /var directory on physical units or VCMP guests as well? The use case here is that /var only has 3GB of disk space, so storing more than two UCS files (~500 MB) on the box in addition to the APM clients and EPSEC packages can quickly use that 3GB. I'm aware that best practice is to download a UCS off the unit and I'm also aware that I change the thresholds disk usage alerts via K8865. I'm trying to gauge if increasing /var is even possible or worth it. Thanks in advance!
