Disk space management occurs in the same manner on the GUI Server except that there
is no log record purging on the GUI Server side. When the GUI Server reaches the minimum
disk space threshold, it automatically shuts down. You will not be able to restart the GUI
Server until you restore the minimum disk space.
The GUI Server also performs a checks for sufficient i-nodes. I-nodes are data structures
that contain information about files in a Unix file system. Each file has an inode that is
identified by an inode number (i-number) in the file system where it resides. There are a
set number of inodes, which indicates the maximum number of files the system can hold.
If the required minimum i-nodes is not available, the GUI Server shuts down automatically.
The default threshold is 10 percent of the total i-nodes remaining. You will not be able
to restart the GUI Server until you reclaim required minimum i-nodes. For your convenience,
a shell script is provided enabling you to reclaim i-nodes. This script is located in the
utilities directory on the GUI Server (

i-nodes. The archive file is stored in:
/usr/netscreen/GuiSvr/var/global/oldDomainVersion.MM-DD-YYYY-HH-MM.tar.gz
You can configure disk space management on the GUI Server edit the GUI Server
configuration file (called guiSvr.cfg).
To configure disk space management:
Log into the server that is running the GUI Server as root.

parameter sets the minimum threshold at which the GUI Server begins purging log
records. The GUI Server purges log records when disk space reaches 500 MB by default.
If you are running the Device Server and GUI Server on the same machine, we
recommend that you set the storageManager.threshold on the Device Server to a
value that is higher than that on the GUI Server. By doing this, the GUI Server will not
shut down as the Device Server attempts to free up some disk space by purging logs.
