Disk space requirements

Before starting the Fix Pack installation, ensure that you have the following space available in the file system. The values indicated in the table show the disk space required by the Dynamic Workload Console alone. For the disk space required by other components, see the relevant documentation.

To obtain the latest information about permanent disk space requirements when installing IBM Workload Scheduler on supported operating systems, run the Hardware requirements report and click on the relevant operating system link

Table 2. Disk space requirements for installing a Dynamic Workload Console Fix Pack
Operating System Installation directory Temporary directory
AIX® 2 GB 800 MB
Linux s390x 2 GB 800 MB
Linux x86-64 2 GB 800 MB
Windows 64 2,5 GB 1 GB

Note: In addition to the above disk space, the installation requires further 579 MB on /usr file system.

If the installation fails because of lack of free disk space, you must stop the installation, free space on your disk, and start the installation again.
