Arcserve 2000 SP5 hard disk filled with .chg files
|

| Using Arcserve 2000 on Win2K server; Exchange Agent installed; Client
agents installed on 3 other Win2K servers
After installing SP5, the hard disk has filled up with thousands of
files named rAAAAAxx.chg. The database cannot be started, so the
backups are now failing.
Questions:
1. These files did not accumulate under SP4 - what are they and why
are they accumulating now?
2. Default pruning job didn't delete these files; have been running
Command Prompt utility software on database for 3 days, so far, with
no way to determine how much longer it has to run to finish. Can
these files be deleted manually?
3. If SP5 is flawed, how do I roll back to SP4, where these problems
didn't occur?
TIA
Rick

| I had the same problem, and I found an article on google, think I did a
search like "arcserve 2000 database size, or arcserve 2000 database too
big" - something like that. I basically deleted those files and freed up a
gig of space on my server. Actually here you go -
