Error description
During data ingest to container storage, IBM Spectrum Protect Server will check the amount of mounted existing containers before attempting to allocation new container from the file system free space. This can possible cause data ingest to container to fail with premature "ANR0522W - no space" condition when the container file system has sufficient free space. . L2/Customer diagnostics: . 1: A backup failed with below error: ANR0522W Transaction failed for session 249129 for node NODE1 (WinNT) - no space available in storage pool CONT1 and all successor pools. 2: show ssdpool CONT1 shows more than 40TB filesystem free space: SD Pool CONT1 (7): SD Pool CONT1 (7): Needs Refresh: False Maximum Size: 0 FsCapacity: 333953024 MB FsFreeSpace: 43810956 MB DedupCntrAllocSpace: 296276187 MB DedupCntrUsedSpace: 294563012 MB DedupCntrFreeSpace: 1713174 MB NonDedupCntrAllocSpace: 1660484 MB NonDedupCntrUsedSpace: 1169156 MB NonDedupCntrFreeSpace: 491328 MB PoolCapacity: 341747627 MB PoolFree: 46015458 MB Dedup Reserved Space: 414377 MB Non Dedup Reserved Space: 0 MB Compression Enabled: Yes Note: The APAR applies if the error condition happens when there are huge amount of FsFreeSpace: Version/Platform affected IBM spectrum Protect Server v7.1/V8.1 using directory container storage.
