This is a very basic question.

you should refer to SAP training. Go for SAP course ADM100...

or search SAP notes:

SAP note 16513 File system is full - what do I do?

Hi,

1. Are you using RAID for your server ?

(I think, you must be !...)

2. Is it Hard RAID or SOFT RAID ?

You can extend disk space by adding another Hard Disk in existing RAID array on which oracle database filesystem is reside.

For this you can consult with your System Administrator.or Hardware Vendor in case of Hardware RAID...

I don't think there is any other way ...

Hi,

Hi,

Then you have 2 options.

1. If your have multiple physical drives and database is installed on separate drive, you can take NTbackup of that drive. Add higher capacity drive to server and restore the database backup (NTbackup) on new drive. Once done change drive letter of the newly added drive as original.

2. You can add another disk in server and define RAID5 on your server. It will increase the total available space.

If you search google "how to create RAID5 in windows" you will get several link explaining step-by-step process...

I don't think there is any other way to overcome this problem, except taking complete backup (Data and System state) and restoring it on new higher capacity drive.

Regards.
