Nigel,

That IS impressive!

External Symptoms, Cause, Fix Description
=========================================

8606351194 -

The VOLUTIL CONTIGVOL can fail to condense free space on a disk,
if the number of 'free blocks' is too high.

CONTIGVOL will produce this warning :
*Warning: Contigvol - Inverse Extent Tbl Full, Internal resource limit.

The relevant internal tables in VOLUTIL have been sufficiently
increased to deal with 10 times as much extents and 5 times as
much files (UFIDs).

*********************************

To bad I did know about this sooner! ! ! !

Regards,

-Craig

There's a patch around to fix that. Either MIRMXP7 or MPEMXP6 ( MIR
patch for 6.5 and up, P6 patch for 7 and up ).

Nige...

Subject: [HP3000-L] volutil - volutil: CONTIGVOL


in an effort to reduce fragmentation i am exploring the volutil command
contigvol. when running it this weekend i received the following error.

volutil: CONTIGVOL vol=pri_mirror:master;timeout=3

*WARNING: *** Running CONTIGVOL on a busy system may cause *** WARNING*
*WARNING: *** "OUT OF DISK SPACE" errors temporarily on *** WARNING*
*WARNING: *** specified LDEV/Volume. *** WARNING*

*Verify: 11957312 contiguous sectors available on ldev 28. Continue
[Y/N] ?y Processing Labels on Ldev 30 ...... Processing Labels on Ldev
29 ...... Processing Labels on Ldev 28 ......
*Warning: Contigvol - Inverse Extent Tbl Full, Internal resource limit.

perhaps i am using the wrong command, or the file system is so
fragmented that it is overflowing an internal table.

any comments would be appreciated.
