DSXchange

We are having trouble with disk scratch space while running the job.

I have had a look at this seems to be a issue with our resource and scratch disk space.

It seams that we are currently pointing the resource and scratch disk space to a location on the D:/ where infoshepere application is installed which has very little free (less the 1%) space,

I think it would be better if we change the location the E:/ where there is currently 680 gig available.

Is this change as simple as changing the config file (depualf.apt) to just point to a new location on the E:/ or is there other impacts or side affects from doing this.

thanks

Yes.

Yes, provided that you can get a keyboard that can spell.

depualf.apt is not the right name!

Which is why I didn't include that little nugget in the quote.

thanks Ray & chulett,

Looks like files are being purged from Scratch folder in every few days.

How can we edit or control this activity?

Find out who/what is doing the purging and negotiate with them... usually the SysAdmins would be the ones worrying about things like that.

Hi Chulett,

currently,I am taking care of Infosphere system as Admin and couple of jobs are failing with scratch disc space issue.

I have noted that scrach folder size is currently 1.2 GB.

Its not letting me to delete any files.

thanks

And?

Talk to the System Administrator responsible for the box. That can't be you.
