Error 112 There Is Not Enough Space On The Disk

Operating system error 112(There is not enough space on the disk.).But drive K contains 353 GB of hard disk space. How can i interpret this error. Is this I/O issue. The command executed isBACKUP DATABASE [xxx_OR] TO DISK = N'K:\MSSQL\Bkup\xxx_OR\xxx_OR_200512010117.BAK' WITH INIT , backupmedium reportioerror write failure on backup device operating system error 112 error not found NOUNLOAD , NOSKIP , STATS = 10, NOFORMAT.I have restarted the backup with FORMAT option and now it is in the processes of backing up(Without NOSKIP).Any pointers as to why this error is appreciated Helen--------------------------------Are you a born again.

It creates a new backup file, and then deletes the old backup file after creating the new one. It needs enough space for 2 backups files bacause of this. This is the safe way to do backups, because you always have a backup file on disk.The solution is to make sure you have enough disk space for 2 backup files.What is the size of your database. I know with 353 Gb available space the pointer I reference may not be the ca
SERVER - Backup Randomly Failing with Error 112 (There is not enough space on the disk.) April 14, 2016Pinal DaveSQL3 commentsSolving puzzle is something everyone would love to do. It gets our creative thoughts and the things that it challenges how we can solve problems. Recently I bought a puzzle which my kid had to
Sql Error 17053
finish in her school holidays. I was amazed to how complex it was. I saw that my kid and wife had taken almost a week to solve it. But once they finished, the expression in their faces to show-off was amazing. I felt it was worth every penny I had spent on it. Few people like detective series because of the same reason. And I also got a similar chance while working with a client in the recent past. Here is http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic241176-24-1.aspx the puzzle which they wanted me to solve for Error 112.As per my client, the problem started a few weeks ago. On random basis the backup of the database was failing with below error in maintenance plan history.Executing the query "BACKUP DATABASE [PRODDB] TO DISK = N'\\…" failed with the following error: "The operating system returned the error ‘112(There is not enough space on the disk.)' while attempting ‘SetEndOfFile' on ‘\\\\fs01\\_SQL_Backups\\proddb_backup_2016_04_06_231005_3910233.bak'.BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally. As we can see, the http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2016/04/14/sql-server-backup-randomly-failing-error-112-not-enough-space-disk/ backups were taken at network location. They took a backup locally and it was lesser than free space available so backup would have succeeded. I have asked if there has any special setting done for backup. All they told me that they are using compressed backup.Resolution for Error 112I did some research and found that the backup size of compressed backup would be different in the beginning and at the end. As we can think, the size completely depends how compressing the data is and SQL Server cannot determine that beforehand. Based on my research, compressed backup completely works on the pre allocate, it may succeed if disk space is less and may fail if disk space is more depending on the pre-allocation file size and final compressed backup size.I have asked to enable the trace flag 3042. By enabling this trace flag, backup bypasses the “pre-allocation algorithm”. This means it will have the most optimized space beforehand.Here is the code to enable the traceflag 3042.DBCC TRACEON (3042,-1); GOIf due to any reason, you want to turn of the traceflag, you can use following code. DBCC TRACEOFF (3042,-1); GO As a general rule of thumb, I have asked my client to have at least 1/3 of the volume of backup. So in this situation, the size of backup database is 50 GB then 1/3 should be at least 17 GB. I have asked them to make sure that they ha

Having problems backing up a single database with the following command backup database [somedatabase] to disk = '\\somehost\d$\BACKUP\somedirectory\some_database.bak' with compression, init, stats=1 The database backs up just fine for a while 93 percent processed. 94 percent processed. Then I get an operating system error error about diskspace Msg 3202, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Write on "\somehost\d$\BACKUP\somedirectory\some_database.bak" failed: 1130 (Not enough server storage is available to process this command.) Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally. This doesn't make any sense because there is over 800GB of available disk space and the backup is using 121GB. In SQL Server's logs I get this message Date 9/25/2013 1:04:56 PM Log SQL Server (Current - 9/25/2013 12:15:00 PM) Source Backup Message BackupIoRequest::ReportIoError: write failure on backup device '\\somehost\d$\BACKUP\somedirectory\some_database.bak'. Operating system error 1130(Not enough server storage is available to process this command.). Some information: Backups are being executed from the server locally and the backup files are being saved to \\somehost which is another server close by. Both the local and remote hosts have sufficient disk space. Compression is on Any assistance on getting to real cause of these backup failures would be appreciated. Thank you Update 16:48 As of R2, Compression is a backup option on standard. Thank you RLF. Still having the same problem with or without. The only difference is that the backup fails at 18% without compression. Decided to monitor disk space to make sure nothing else was eating up GB during the backup. As expected, available disk space went down to 600GB while u

TECHNOLOGY IN THIS DISCUSSION Join the Community! Creating your account only takes a few minutes. Join Now I have a SQL 2000 server that every couple of days fails it's backup. When digging through the error log I find the following: Operating system error 112(There is not enough space on the disk.). I know space is not an issue as the DBs being backed up equal less than 20GB. And there is just under 100GB of space on the disk. One solution I have come up with was to create a duplicate Maintenance Plan. When the backup fails with this error message I disable the current job and enable the alternate. This works for a few days then the alternate fails out with the same message and then I revert back to the original. It's becoming a vicious cycle. Every web search I have done only comes back with results referring to restoring DBs from backups. For obvious reasons this is not very helpful. Has anyone ever experienced this. I know upgrading SQL would probably fix the problem, but not sure at this time if that is an option based on the importance of this server and the legacy apps running. FYI: This is being backup up to a local disk first and then Robocopied to a NAS.
