Re: filesystem full message during rcp

Look in the: "/tmp", "/", "/var" and even the filesystem on your local/source system that you are rcp'ing from. This message doesn't necessarily mean
the source and target filesystems only. Remember some UNIX commands use system filesystems such as: "/tmp", "/", etc. to hold temp files while
they run, and if those are full then there could be a problem like this. Also, remember if the tcp/ip stack needs to write temp files somewhere and it can't
due to a filesystem being full somewhere then that could be your culprit as well.
Just some thoughts.
Thanks.

Subject: filesystem full message during rcp


I have a perplexing situation with a rcp job that is reporting the destination filesystem as full when it is not...or at least is not when I check it the next AM. I'm pretty sure that nothing is coming in after the rcp job completes and magically creating the free space that I see in the AM.



rcp: /seek/w1/olc101401s.fix: There is not enough space in the file system.



Has anyone seen this before?

TIA
