Former Member

Hi,

When i am scheduling "Full database offline backup" in DB13 the job fails due to low disk space. I can't delete anything from disk drive/backup root directory. There is not enough space in other drives also in OS level. How to solve the problem.

Regards,

Nabarun

Is compression = yes set in your init<SID>.sap file?

If no, set it. Also check compress_cmd.

If already set, you may be out of luck.

Anyway, you will need more disk space. Now or in the long run.

Hi,

If it is already compressed then you have to increase your backup device (disk).

hi narabun dada,

i think you have to use external drive or tape drive to resolve this issue.

You could also add an additional harddisk, get a tape drive, add server to a SAN (if you have one), pipe it to a mapped drive on a different server... etc, etc, etc..

If compression is enabled and you still don't have enough space then this is an IT issue not a SAP one.
