Hi Frank,
You seem to be facing a disc allocation failure here...
But you have nearly 5 GB free disc space!
Summary:
-------
(If you are using ONLINE and/or INTER, the disc space space
requirements will be higher as in "Details".)
Please ensure that:
1. In temporary domain of the volume/volumeset where the file
belongs to, you have at least as much space as the largest
file in the restoreset.
2. In permanent domain of the volume/volumeset where the file
belongs to, you have at least as much space as the total
size of the files you are restoring.
Details:
-------
For each file in the restoreset, TurboSTORE first restores
the entire file from tape into the temporary domain, and if
the restore of that file is successful, it goes on and purges
the old file from disc, and saves the restored file with the
original name (FCLOSE'es with Permanent Disposition - in MPE
terms) into the permanent domain.
The space for the NEW (temporary) file is allocated on the
volumeset where the file belongs to depending on its
volume/volumeset restrictions. Hence, on this volume/volumeset,
you need as much transient space as the largest file in the
restoreset.
Also, in the permanent domain, you need at least as much space
as the total size of the files you are restoring.
And, 'Parallel Restore' and 'Restore from a tape created with
INTER option' will have bigger free disc space requirements
compared to (plain) serial restore.
For example, inter if keeping four files open simultaneously,
it may need as much space as the size of any four files in the
restoreset.
If disc space is not the issue, then it may be an issue with
STORE handling the GB files.
Best regards,
Bijo
