SAP Note 13142 - Defining additional storage areas under INFORMIX

Component : Informix -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/13142 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
The R/3 message log may display SQL errors: -131 ISAM error indicating no free disk space or -271 signaling the inability to insert a new row. These errors can also cause ABAP Reports to terminate, especially when the storage space managed by Informix is full. Informix stores data in DBSpaces, which consist of individual chunks. When a DBSpace is full, the database memory area needs expansion by adding more chunks. The fullness of a DBSpace can be checked using sapdba or CCMS tools. If no space issue exists and error -271 persists, other causes must be investigated.
