VirtualBox PUM Image PIA not running due to lack of space

I have been running a new VirtualBox HR PUM Image for several weeks. I've recently been unable to login into the image even though it appears to be running. I ran across an article on MOS that talked about the disk becoming full and that was my problem.

Over time you will have log and core files that will build up and not allow the PIA and other processes to start due to a lack of space for the log files. You can log in to the Image as the root user and run the "df -k" command to view available space.





The solution is to remove core dump files (core.*), trace files, log files and cache files from
the directories. I removed all of these files from the following directories:

/home/psadm2/psft/pt/8.55/appserver/APPDOM
/home/psadm2/psft/pt/8.55/appserv/prcs/PRCSDOM
/home/psadm2/psft/pt/8.55/appserv/prcs/PRCSDOM/LOGS
/home/psadm2/psft/pt/8.55/webserv/peoplesoft/applications/peoplesoft/PORTAL.war/ps/cach


I restarted the Image after I removed these files and the Application Server and PIA domain started normally. I use an FTP client to connect to the PUM Image.

Unified Navigation in PeopleTools 8.55

I recently installed Unified Navigation in a 8.55 fluid environment. I installed the workcenter from the latest IH PUM Image (Doc ID 1641843.2). Here are some import/export DMS scripts and a App Designer project to help in migrating this to your environment. Big thanks to Simon Chiu for assistance with the Unified Nav functionality.

1) Run your export script (Click here to download) in IH PUM Image 3 to create the DAT file
2) Run the import script (Click here to download) in your IH environment to import the workcenter and activity guide
3) Copy the app designer project (Click here to download) into your IH environment
4) Bounce your app/web server for changes to take effect
5) From the Navigator menu go to Portal Administration->Unified Navigation Workcenter
    -Note: You might have to add the Portal security role to your security if you get an error          

PSAdmin.io Deployment Package course

Dan Iverson has put together a new course on the PeopleSoft DPK. He does a very nice job explaining how to build out a PeopleSoft infrastructure.
