DiskMap regkey not working correctly

Hello,

we can see the following behaviour with the diskmap regkey.
https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.100000606

There are partitions were are nearly 100% full but which are not in use anymore.

The data was moved. However the admin service stopped because of the size monitoring.
The event log says the partition N:\ and K:\ are rearly full.

On the server is no partition available with drive letter N.

We can see that the drive letters are "shifted"
N=K and K=H

So we excluded the drive "H" which has the value from N.
The ev server version is 12.4.1

Does anyone know this behaviour?

Kind regards,

Lucas Häussler

    Hello Lucas,

    If I read that article, I understand that (following your listing to drive K), you get below 'numbers'

    c = 4
    d = 8
    e = 16
    f = 32
    g = 64
    h = 128
    i = 256
    j = 512
    k = 1024
    l = 2048
    m = 4096
    n = 8192

    In your case, if you get a warning for N and K, the value should be 8192+1024 = 9216

    That is, if I understand it correct :)

    <added>You can also disable this monitoring for these completely. See https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.100017740

      Hello Gertjan,

      yes you are right. We implemented the value 9216 but the error were still appearing.
      We also tested the values 128 for h and 8192 for n. Same behaviour.

      But after we set the value for k (1024) the message regarding the h drive letter was gone.

      It seems the drive letters are incorret for ev.

      Best regards.
