vDisk or Disk Space Alerts

A protected node’s virtual disk (vdisk) requires a specific amount of disk space. As soon as your protected node’s vdisk capacity usage exceeds 80%, onQ alerts you. Also, your onQ Appliance has internal policies that ensure that it doesn’t run out of disk space.

CRITICAL – Failure of Recovery Node Creation for <PN-Name>	An unexpected error was encountered when attempting to update the contents of a Recovery Node. The error status returned was: SystemErrDiskFull(e:). No further updates to the Recovery Node will be attempted until you select the Initialize button. Please contact Quorum Support to resolve this error.	One of two reasons: • RN was built for the first time and vdisk for one or more volumes is under allocated. • RN was re-initialized (even if earlier RN exists) and vdisk for one or more volumes is under allocated.	Resize/expand the vdisk as outlined in Resize protected node’s vdisk. The error message indicates the relevant disk drive/volume. In this example, e:.
CRITICAL – RN disk space insufficient for <PN-Name> on <onQ-Manager-Name>	The Recovery Node disk space allocated for <PN-Name> is insufficient to create a new RN from the current snapshot. The previous RN will be left unchanged. The snapshot data for the PN is intact and a new RN will be created when the configured disk space is increased....	Initial vdisk size allocated for a volume on the PN (when PN was configured via the Protect Me button or manually on to the HA) is inadequate because of the growing data on PN in the corresponding volume. In this case, the onQ Manager does not update the RN. You will continue to receive this alert until you take corrective action.	Resize the vdisk as outlined in Resize protected node’s vdisk.
CRITICAL - <onQ Appliance-Name>: Free Diskspace Was Critically Low	The free Repository space on onQ-HASSD has fallen below allowable limits.	onQ has a built-in policy whereby if its disk space exceeds 85% onQ begins to “free up” space by deleting old backups.	Add more disk space, or delete backups manually as outlined in Delete snapshots,
