Ensure that you have enough contiguous disk space on LDEV 1 to complete your task. The total amount of non-contiguous disk space does not need to fit entirely on LDEV 1.

To reserve disk space:

  1. Estimate contiguous disk space required to update your system.

    Mount the CSLT created by HPINSTAL.

    :CHECKSLT.MPEXL.TELESUP
    **************************CHECKSLT 1.9************************
    --------------------------------
    L E V E L - N U M B E R S
    --------------------------------
    1 - Check the tape. Display errors and file names.
    2 - Check the tape. DIsplay errors, file names and size.
    3 - Check the tape and display all information for each section.
    4 - Recover a TAPE BOOT file. NOT AVAILABLE
    5 - Recover a DISK file from the tape and copy it to a disk file.
    6 - Check the tape and display the contents of one file in hex.
    7 - Check the tape and display summary of tape and disk use statistics.
    8 - Information.
    9 - Exit program.

    Which level? __

    Select option 7.

    Record sectors required for axldev1.

  2. Reserve contiguous and non-contiguous disk space.

    :BUILD AXLDEV1.pub.sys;DISC=120000,1,1;DEV=1
    :BUILD AXLSPACE.pub.SYS;DISC=????,32,32

    If a colon (:) prompt is returned, the files were built and you have enough disk space.

    If you receive a message, "Out of disk space," make more space available on your system before you perform an update or add-on. Refer to Appendix C “Managing Disk Space” for information on finding additional disk space.

  3. Purge the AXLSPACE file. The AXLDEV1 file is automatically purged by the UPDATE tool.

    :PURGE AXLSPACE.PUB.SYS
