Wow Kathy....glad I don't work there....I just talked to our SAN people and doubled my DB storage space on one db server from 500GB to a full 1TB because of anticipated growth....my environment team isn't comfortable without at least 3-5GB sitting 'idle' on my app server....

I can delete more discovery files also, however aren't these files going to regenerate again when I run a synchronization? I noticed files are continually created on our application server by discovery. Our Management believes every application server should be low disk space. They recently increased the hard drive space to 16G (which they thought was a "favor"). I am trying to find out more info about the Discovery allocation of space, so that I can explain WHY we need more space to my Management. To me it's quite simple - 16G is ridiculous, but I can't use that for an argument. -----Original Message----- From: Rick Cook <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, Feb 10, 2010 10:53 am Subject: Re: Server Crash Seriously, upon what are Management's beliefs based? This seems like an arbitrary limitation. That being said, there are probably some old discovery files you could delete to free up some space. Maybe ask them how much history they want you to store. That way, they can choose between some cheap disk space and what may be more valuable data. And since their decision will have been an informed one, they are responsible for it.

Our Application Server runs Discovery 1.6. Our database is remote. We have right now 1G of space left. Our Management believes there is no reason why 16G is not sufficient space for this Discovery application to run parallel with other applications. We have other applications running on this server like HP Openview, SQL Server, VMware, etc... I noticed when Discovery runs (during synchronization) files are created also on the application server (i.e. java files, tmp files, etc..). And if logging is on, then files are created also. Is 16G an reasonable size to run Discovery 1.6? _Platinum Sponsor: [email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _Platinum Sponsor: [email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"_ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor:[email protected] ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
