Re: HELP: libobk.a not found/empty while installing 8.1.5 on AIX

Hi,
Refer also to metalink note

Doc ID: Note:1069306.6
Subject: LIBOBK CANNOT BE LOCATED DURING INSTALL OF 8.1.5 which explains the work around when encountering this error and bascially yes its a space issue.

Hope this helps.
Regards,

Madhavan
