Datastage server directory running out of space
Hi Friends,
I am facing this issue of Datastage server directory on UNIX "Ascential/Datastage" running out of space frequently. My system administrator keeps increasing the size of the directory but in a matter of 10 days the directory has grown from 8 GB to 11 GB in size!!! I am baffled because I cant understand the reason for this. The file sytem for writing the datafiles is completely different, so there is no chance of data files being written to datastage project directory.
I have also eneabled Auto purge job log feature in datastage admin. So the log files hould not create a prob either..
Can any of you shed some light on this peculiar issue? Your help will be highly appreciated.

Hi Loveojha2,loveojha2 wrote:Are there any jobs running with large number of warnings, if yes, then try to modify the jobs in such a way that you don't get warnings at all.
As long as the Auto purge feature is enabled in ds admin, it dsnt matter even if the job gives warnings.. I have already tried all that..
Any other suggestions?
Code: Select all
#!/bin/ksh
# 2GB
find . -size +2000000000c -exec ls -l {} \;

There are a lot of 'TEMP*', 'RT_LOG*' and 'RT_STATUS*' files in the project directory, But I feel these files are generated internally by ds processes and are required.. Do you mean to say that I can DELETE these files?loveojha2 wrote:Check which files are relatively big in size and what is their type (log,RTBP,temp file)?
Just classify the space utilized by the different types of file, that may lead to some clue.

How many jobs are there in the project?
If they are not hugh in numbers.
My advise could be taking export of the entire project with the executable and creating a different project with that, then you can make a comparison actually, since you have said that you are auto purging the log and you are not maintaining Hashed Files in the project directory, so there should not be much of a difference.

Success consists of getting up just one more time than you fall.
