asat

Symptom

Receiving the following NIC System Message:

%NIC-4-100002: Disk Usage: Disk capacity 90 percent on drive E:\ is exceeding shutdown 90 percent

Fix

After further investigation of E:\ you find one or many large asat.tmp files located in E:\%_envision%\tmp on your single enVision appliance or your ASRV in an LS deployment

1.  Remote Desktop into single enVision appliance or your ASRV in an LS Deployment

2. Go to Computer Management->Services and Applications->Services and restart the NIC DB Server service

3. Verify asat.tmp files were removed or reduced in size (typically ~1MB)

If your reports are large, these temporary files may be filling up the drive quickly due to the amount of data that is analyzed.  You can move the location of these temp file to a larger repository via this solution.
