While deploying patches getting Disklimit error, even we provide 4GB to below parameters
_BESClient_Download_PreCacheStageDiskLimitMB
_BESClient_Download_NormalStageDiskLimitMB
Could anyone help on this topic
What do you have for this setting:
_BESClient_Download_MinimumDiskFreeMB
Description of this setting is:
This setting stops both stages of downloading (normal stage and pre-caching stage) if the free space of the disk on which the client stores downloads is less than the value of this setting the default for this is 20MB
Also visit this page and do a browser search to get the details of the setting:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSQL82_9.5.0/com.ibm.bigfix.doc/Platform/Config/r_client_set.html
We set ours to 7GB… That way, Windows and mac updgrades and updates are within that scope.
When we deploy Creative Cloud (Device Licence) we have to increase to 20Gb
So that setting is what the client will attempt to keep free on the disk. Increasing it can mean that downloads will stop due to having no space on the device. If _BESClient_Download_MinimumDiskFreeMB is set to 20GB then you must keep 20GB free on the BESClient drive
I omitted to include that, Thanks @AlanM , Those huge installs are a real pain on a 256GB or less SSD too.
I have had to re-build the installers some times to force the install to use another drive in the past.
Typically a 20G download will require twice the space to be free in order to unpack and install, and sometimes , up to 3 times that amount.
