Verifying Disk Space for Voice Mail and Music on Hold

Overview

You can determine how much hard drive space is left for both the /vmail partition and the /db partition by check the available free disk space on the hard drive. The external Music on Hold file is stored in the /db partition. By checking the available space you can determine if the recorded file size will fit.

The /vmail partition will allow technicians to determine if they have enough storage space for voice mail greetings and messages.

Note: The amount of disk space available for voice mail backup is 4GB. Messages must be deleted to reduce the voice mail file size to this amount before attempting a backup.

Procedure

To check available free disk space for /vmail

Enter dosFsShow "/vmail". The following system response is an example. The amount of free space is given at the end of the system response:

volume descriptor ptr (pVolDesc): 0xeb30e50

cache block I/O descriptor ptr (cbio): 0xeb30f28

auto disk check on mount: DOS_CHK_REPAIR | DOS_CHK_VERB_1

max # of simultaneously open files: 62

file descriptors in use: 4

# of different files in use: 4

# of descriptors for deleted files: 0

# of obsolete descriptors: 0

current volume configuration:

- volume label: NO LABEL ; (in boot sector: )

- volume Id: 0xa9510000

- total number of sectors: 28,903,392

- bytes per sector: 512

- # of sectors per cluster: 16

- allocation group size: 181 clusters

- free space on volume: 14,540,800,002 bytes

value = 0 = 0x0

The Music on Hold files are stored under /db/eMOH. To check the available free disk space for /db, Enter dosFsShow "/db". The following system response is an example. The amount of free space is given at the end of the system response:
