I have a Server 2003 with a volume which is running out of space. The volume in question is a small volume used for MS SQL 2000 databases. The folder causing problems, using space, is System Information Volume. F:\System Volume Information>dir /aahs Volume in drive F is DB Volume Serial Number is 2A8C-7ECA Directory of F:\System Volume Information 06/06/2005 11:02 PM 574,717,952 100{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 07/06/2005 11:02 PM 431,079,424 108{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 08/06/2005 11:02 PM 422,748,160 112{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 09/06/2005 11:02 PM 450,838,528 116{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 10/06/2005 06:01 AM 314,572,800 120{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 31/05/2005 11:01 PM 408,981,504 84{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 01/06/2005 11:01 PM 438,829,056 88{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 02/06/2005 11:02 PM 456,753,152 92{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 03/06/2005 11:02 PM 450,338,816 96{3808876b-c176-4e48-b7ae-04046e6cc752} 27/04/2004 05:02 PM 20,480 tracking.log 10 File(s) 3,948,879,872 bytes 0 Dir(s) 123,625,472 bytes free I do not have System Restore points on this server, nor does this volume use Shadow Copies. All the files are created at around 11:00, which is when Backup Exec run a backup for this volume. Although I hate doing this, I'm going to delete the oldest file and free up some space, I can;t have my dbs failing due to lack of space. Any ideas ? |

fix = seer.support.veritas.com/docs/269989.htm To resolve the issue, stop the Volume Shadow Copy service. a. Open Services from Start -> Programs -> Administrative Tools. b. Locate the Volume Shadow Copy service, and Stop the service. c. The files can be manually deleted after the service is stopped |

| Re: System Information Volume folder, on Server 2003, filling up.
I had the same problem. The Backup Exec jobs were not completing successfully and my System Volume folder grew to over 90GB. All I had to do was stop and start the Volume Shadow Copy service. All of the temp files were gone after the service started up again. |
