Free Disk Space for Updates

You can help ensure successful subscription updates on CA Enterprise Log Manager servers by regularly cleaning up the disk. Subscription updates cannot be downloaded from a subscription proxy to a subscription client when disk space usage reaches or exceeds the limit of 90 percent.

To ensure sufficient disk space for subscription updates

1. Monitor available disk space on a regular basis. Alternatively, set up an action alert to notify you when available disk space drops below 20 percent.
2. Free disk space with a disk cleanup tool.

   Note: If available disk space is 10 percent or lower when the subscription update process begins, the subscription service issues a self-monitoring event and suspends the download process.

3. If you are warned of the need for cleanup with a self-monitoring event, free enough disk space to allow the download to succeed.
