Problem

When attempting to install the NetBackup client software, the installer is requesting an additional 4 GB of space, even though the client binaries are documented to need 2 GB or less and there is sufficient space to host the client.

 

Error Message

 

Cause

The amount of the additional space requested may vary, but it is being suggested so there is sufficient disk space for Accelerator track logs, or verbose logging for troubleshooting failed operations.

 

Solution

Temporarily grant the extra space being requested by the installer.

After the upgrade or installation completes, the binary size can be confirmed to match what is documented in the specific Admin Guide or release notes for the installed version.
