Problem Description
|
|
RecoverEDGE fails when creating a bootable cd/DVD/OBDR image with "No space of /dev/marry (76/1)"
|
|
Cause
|
|
Under SCO OpenServer 5.0.7, the size of the kernel is quite large when Maintenance Pack 3 is installed, thus causing RecoverEDGE to fail when creating a boot image. As far as OpenServer is concerned a CD is a 2.88 MB floppy disk that must have disk 1 & disk 2 on the 2.88 MB partition.

|
Solution
|
|
There are a number of possibilities that allow one to get around this, first would be to disable BTLD support when creating your RecoverEDGE media. This can be found under re2->Configure. Then next option would be to create media using the 1.67 MB floppy diskette option when starting RecoverEDGE.
If none of these options work, check your /dev directory for the existence of a large data file. There should be no data files in /dev, if there is that could cause the problem you're seeing.
Finally, make sure you have your BackupEDGE updated to our latest build.

Notes
|
|
Be advised when disabling BTLD support, this will eliminate the possibility of adding a Boot Time Loadable Driver in the event that a controller change is needed to bring the system back. This will only allow recovery when the controller stays the same or a new one is identical.
