Free space on C: drive will eventually go below your threshold. After investigating the cause with TreeSize Free tool (http://www.jam-software.com/treesize_free/), I ended up in this result (biggest folder is with the name winsxs):
If you are running out of other options to free space on a Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 computer, then as a last resort you can disable SP1 uninstall feature by running the following command on the administrative command prompt:
dism /online /cleanup-image /spsuperseded
It will remove the files needed for Service Pack uninstall and free some gigabytes on Windows drive. In my case about 4GB.
For making more space available on MSSQL Servers look this http://raunomagi.blogspot.com/2013/01/shrink-all-databases-on-microsoft-sql.html
ReplyDeleteThis is also a good command for cleaning up (Remember, that this command blocks your ability to uninstall currently installed updates and service packs!):
ReplyDeleteDism.exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase
