Q: – The bootsys command fails due to insufficient space in the /stand volume. Why?
The bootsys commands needs to copy the two files:
# /opt/ignite/boot/Rel_<release>/*INSTALL
# /opt/ignite/boot/Rel_<release>/*INSTALLFS
where <release> is the operating system release, from the server into the client's /stand directory. This error indicates that there is not enough space in /stand on the client. To correct the error, you may need to remove any backup kernels. Additionally, check for kernels in the /stand/build directory (like vmunix_test).
