Issue

  • Cannot create volume on an aggregate when there is space in the aggregate.

Cluster::*> volume create -vserver svm1 -volume volume1 -aggregate node4_aggr -size 2TB -state online -policy AgfaDefault -junction-path /volume1 -junction-active true -snapshot-policy none -space-guarantee volume -security-style ntfs

[Job 79838] Job is queued: Create volume1.

Error: command failed: [Job 79838] Job failed: Volume created successfully but not mounted. Reason: Failed to create or determine if a junction exists within volume
 "svm1_root". Error occurred with the remaining junction path of "/volume1" for the given path of "/volume1"  Reason: No space left on device.

 
 
  • Aggregate where the volume being created has space.  
::> df -A -h        
Aggregate    Total Size    used    avail    capacity    FabricPool
node4_aggr   203.35t      2.73m    203.35t      0%        
node4_aggr/.snapshot      0.00      0.00      0.00      0%     
 
 
 
  • Aggregate where the svm root volume resides is full:  
 
df -A -h        
Aggregate    Total Size    used    avail    capacity    FabricPool
node3_aggr    176.49t   176.49t      0.00      100%        
node3_aggr/.snapshot      0.00      0.00      0.00      0%
