Controlling disk space for track logs on primary server
To proceed with an Accelerator enabled backup, NetBackup anticipates a disk-full situation due to track log processing. Accelerator track logs on the primary server can become a problem with less free space.
By default, NetBackup prevents an Accelerator backup, if there is less than 5 GB or 5% of free space on the system.
NetBackup provides two configuration settings to control the amount of free disk space on a host for an Accelerator backup to start:
ACCELERATOR_TRACKLOG_FREE_SPACE_MB
ACCELERATOR_TRACKLOG_FREE_SPACE_PERCENT
The default value for each setting is 5120 MB and 5%, respectively. To have backup fail fast if there is insufficient space, configure these values in the primary server's bp.conf file.
