TSM v5.3, TSM v6.2.1

 

During the install/upgrade, I got these messages:

 

Warning!

 

This installation requires 1,733.08 MB of free disk space, but there are
only

1,207.32 MB available at:

 

   /opt/tivoli/tsm

 

Please free at least 525.76 MB to proceed with the installation.

 

PRESS <ENTER> TO RECALCULATE AVAILABLE DISK SPACE,

      OR TYPE 'QUIT' TO EXIT THE INSTALLER:

 

 

I added the space to /opt, and continued okay.

 

There is now enough disk space to proceed with the installation.

 

The upgrade seemed to want another 1.7 GB to install, about the size of
the pkg itself.

 

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     system   1839742728 Jun 04 16:17
6.2.1.0-TIV-TSMALL-AIX.bin*

 

At any rate, the manual says:

 

Fix any errors before continuing. The installation log,
installFixPack.log, is stored

in the following location:

coi/plan/tmp

 

I don't find that filename anywhere, although there are a lot of logs
under /opt/tivoli/tsm/_uninst.


This new space check is probably a fix for apar  IC66870: OUT OF SPACE
MESSAGE DURING SERVER FIXPACK INSTALL.


But does it really require another 1.7 GB?


After the upgrade, I show:
