Thanks John,

I felt (still feel) a bit dense asking the question myself, but our SA is basically clueless, the box runs Oracle, so it's an Oracle problem since extents are involved right?

Anyway, in between other things, I've been doing some research, and it may have to do with a "lost" inode. I asked the SA about running an fsck on the file system, and he told me he'd get back to me. I was hoping that someone on the list had experienced something similar and could give me some pointers.

David,
Why does the SA say it is an Oracle issue? The error message shown refers to a LV that is full (allegedly) that happens to contain some files owned by the oracle user.

Sorry if I am being a bit dense but I am doing my best :-)

My sysadmin is complaining about an Oracle(?) error on our HP9000, HP_UX v11.0, running three Oracle 8.1.7.0 instances. His error message is as follows:

vxfs: mesg 001: vx_nospace - /dev/vgt001/lvol1 file system full (1 block extent)

This file system has my /u001/app/oracle.............. OFA compliant stuff on it. A df -k shows me the following:

qe2l1:oracle /u001/app/oracle/admin/sasidist/bdump>>df -k .

/u001                  (/dev/vgt001/lvol1     ) :  7096543 total allocated

Nothing in any of the alert logs, the databases are up and functioning with

several hundred users logged in and working away. The sysadmin has told damagement that it's Oracle's fault the backups aren't working (I don't trust the tape setup, and let them think they're backing up the DBs, but backups are run to disk and they get the compressed TAR'd result on tape - I hope). I have my doubts, but am thinking the error might have something to do with OmniBack, absent Oracle.

Metalink doesn't have anything on this, and there are some questions I've found on Google, but no answers yet. Any input (well...almost any input) would be appreciated
