4.12 Reserving Disk Space for CD-ROM Tasks

Ensure that you have enough contiguous disk space on LDEV 1 to complete your task. The total amount of non-contiguous disk space does not need to fit entirely on LDEV 1.

To reserve disk space:

Estimate contiguous disk space required to update your system.

Mount the CSLT created by HPINSTAL.

Select option 7.

Record sectors required for axldev1.

Reserve contiguous and non-contiguous disk space.
:BUILD AXLDEV1;DISC=n,1,1;DEV=1 :BUILD AXLSPACE;DISC=m,32,32
If a colon (:) prompt is returned, the files were built and you have enough disk space.
If you receive a message, "Out of disk space,"make more space available on your system before you perform an update or add-on. Refer to Appendix C for information on finding additional disk space.
Purge the AXLSPACE file. The AXLDEV1 file is automatically purged by the UPDATE tool.
:PURGE AXLSPACE.PUB.SYS
