database server is down, check for low disk space (23)

[Mitesh_Nandu]

We are getting Database server is down, while opening admin console.

nbemmcmd command output

C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmd>nbemmcmd.exe -getemmserver
NBEMMCMD, Version: 7.6.1
The function returned the following failure status:
database server is down, check for low disk space (23)
Command did not complete successfully.

So.... did you check available space in C-drive?

NBU will shutdown EMM database when disk space is running low to prevent database corruption.

Transaction log may need recreating

Could be worth stopping everything, restarting then check the server.log

The internal Sybase ASA database log file (which is not the DB transaction log), can be found here:

D:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackupDB\log\server.log

...(assuming NetBackup is installed on the D: drive - so you may need to change the drive letter to the letter of the drive upon which NetBackup is installed).

.

Here's a useful command to search the database server process log file for anything non-informational, i.e. to search for warnings and errors etc:

> findstr /i /v "^I" "D:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackupDB\log\server.log"

Hi All,

After extending additional space to c driver, problem resolved.
