Hi,

which database you are using?

if you are using oracle as databse then it's difficult.

check Note 1013391 - IDES ERP 2005 ECC 6.0 SR2 for space required by different database.

HI,

decreasing abap buffer size we we can increase the drive size

it's not reduse the HDD space.

Oracle database takes 220 GB + on ECC 6.0 IDES

and and other space are required by OS and Virtual Memory

so you need to add one more HDD.

Hi,

first stop sap.

if you already add new HDD then as temporary workaround remove virtual memory assign to your D drive if you have two partition and assign virtaul memory to new HDD.

and on future add data file for tablespace on this newly added HDD.

you can also move redo log file on different partition

1. Create new redo logfile groups in the new location.

alter database add logfile group 3 'filename','filename' size 100m;

2. Alter system switch logfile till the the new one is current and the old one is no longer active.

3. Alter system drop logfile group 1;

4 Delete old redo log file.

HI,

in future if your tablespace being full then you need to add datafile , so add datafile using BR TOOLS on newly

added HDD.

if you want to move redo log file then check SAP Note 309526 - Enlarging redo log files

redo log file resides under /oracle/SID/origloga
