Recovering From a Full Disk

The database engine terminates if a disk holding a database file becomes full while the Progress database is running. If this happens, follow these steps:

  1. Remove any nonessential files from the full disk.
  2. Start the Progress database, letting it automatically perform crash recovery of the database.

If you cannot make enough room on your disk to allow the database engine to perform crash recovery, you must take further steps. The steps vary, depending on the contents of the full disk, as explained in the following sections.
