How Do I Fix Agent Startup Failures Due to Insufficient Space in /tmp on a Linux Source Server?
Symptom
When you ran sh startup.sh to start the SMS Agent, the following message was displayed:
Failed to write all bytes for cffibackend.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux.gnu.sofwrite: No space left on device
Possible Causes
When the Agent is being started, directories and files are generated in the /tmp directory on the source server. These files will occupy about 40 MB of space. You need to reserve more than 100 MB space for the /tmp directory.
Solution
- Log in to the source server.
- Run the df -lh command to check whether there is a volume mounted to the /tmp directory. If there is, check the available space for that volume.
- If the available space in the /tmp directory is insufficient for the mounted volume, delete unnecessary files or expand the capacity of the volume mounted to the /tmp directory.
