Dear all,

Appreciate if you can help on the following error.

05/11/2006 06:08:43 - started process bpbrm (pid=29685)
05/11/2006 06:08:43 - connecting
05/11/2006 06:08:43 - connected; connect time: 0:00:00
05/11/2006 06:08:43 - started process bptm (pid=29688)
05/11/2006 06:08:47 - Error bptm (pid=29688) error requesting media, errno = No space left on device
05/11/2006 06:08:47 -
05/11/2006 06:08:48 - end writing
error requesting media (tpreq) (98)

I have tried on different media but backup still fail.

But when I re-run the backup manually after a while, it will complete successfully.

I have another client which backup starts at the same time as this one. The second client did not encounter any errors.

Thank you.

Look at the file system on the server you are having problems with.

bdf | grep /usr

Hi James,

It seems like the root file system in my media server is full.
