Hi all,

In the weekend we did a bit of work on the server, and installed FB 1.5
released version while we were at it.

Today we had a couple of reports from users about unavailable disk space
messages (from the FB Server). Our new setup uses mounted (or attached as MS
calls them) drives, which in explorer mis-reports available disk space...
Yes, looked like there was a lack of space.

Ok, we quickly deleted some non essential files and hoped that all would be
OK... It wasn't (and still isn't! I sit here waiting for the latest gfix to
finish)...

After running out of disk space FB 1.5 seemed to make a big mess of the GDB:
Blob Page Errors: 11
Data page errors: 5
Index Page Errors: 21
Database Page Errors: 1239

Not sure how big a mess, but it seems pretty big... Still trying to get it
back on line.

To make matters worse, you guessed it, last night's backup failed as well.
But that is another storey.

Just wondering if it is a new problem with v1.5, Ok, it is not good to run
out of disk space, but should it let the DB get corrupted???

Regards
Colin
