The post that I referenced shows how the (very experienced) user logged a call with Veritas Support.
Have you considered that?The fact that 2 users are experiencing the same issue shows that there might be a problem with 3.1 pre-checks.
If that is the case, then Veritas Support should firstly be able to assist you, but also escalate to Backline and from there to Engineering.

Added information that I realized last night that I forgot to add.&nbsp; As you see the message reports that it needs more space and how much, however it does not tell me which partition needs the space.&nbsp; When I go to maintenance and elevate a df -h and in root a du -sh does not have any indication as to what might be the problem.&nbsp; The appliance was a factory load with the only modification to the system was an upgrade to 3.0 earlier this year.

I have moved your query to the NetBackup Appliance forum.
Please see this other post with similar issue:

Thanks for sharing, but the lack of information was not helpful.

Maybe lead off with that when you want to do something like that, especially when someone is just looking for an answer or some help.&nbsp; It helps to cut down on confusion.
