Bug ID 629213: Set filespace quota for file objects

Last Modified: Jul 12, 2023

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IQ Access(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
5.1.0, 5.2.0

Fixed In:
5.3.0

Opened: Nov 17, 2016

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Unable to download new file objects due to "exceeds storage quota" error.

Impact

Inability to add new file objects

Conditions

This can occur when storing files larger than 500MB

Workaround

To extend the storage quota, use the restcurl command to set a new value. Current value is obtained by: # restcurl cm/system/file-object-configuration/storageDir { "directoryPath": "/var/config/rest/fileobject", "generation": 4, "kind": "cm:system:file-object-configuration:fileobjectconfigurationstate", "lastUpdateMicros": 1491948519420631, "maxFilespaceBytes": 524288000, "name": "storageDir", "selfLink": "https://localhost/mgmt/cm/system/file-object-configuration/storageDir" } Use restcurl with PATCH verb to update maxFilespaceBytes: restcurl -X PATCH cm/system/file-object-configuration/storageDir -d '{"maxFilespaceBytes":1000000000}' { "name": "storageDir", "directoryPath": "/var/config/rest/fileobject", "maxFilespaceBytes": 1000000000, "generation": 5, "lastUpdateMicros": 1491948923168173, "kind": "cm:system:file-object-configuration:fileobjectconfigurationstate", "selfLink": "https://localhost/mgmt/cm/system/file-object-configuration/storageDir" }

Fix Information

File grooming issues are fixed. Any excess config files that are not used in the system are removed. Since these excess files were occupying file-quota space, import failed in earlier releases. This should resolve import issues related to file-quota overage.
