How could this be? He checked the obvious and, sure enough, there was no free space on the disk and Novell&#8217;s finest was <i>not<\/i> happy. But how? There had been no warnings, no hints of the impending catastrophe. What had happened?<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, the finger of blame swung to point at Novell. After all, an update had been installed a few days previously and now the world had seemingly ended. However, after more than a day of research and lengthy periods on hold to the vendor&#8217;s support lines, Ralph was no closer to identifying the source of the borkage.<\/p>\n<p>Right up until he came across a forum thread from another user having a similar problem, except this was regarding the virus scan software. It transpired that it had also had an update. One which did not play well with Novell. Not at all.<\/p>\n<p>The disagreement between the tools resulted in the file server reporting file sizes as being 10 times normal. The drive was effectively full, even though it really wasn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The only way to fix this particular issue,&#8221; said Ralph, &#8220;was a complete rebuild and restore from backups, or get the machine running so the patch that was downloaded would correctly fix the file size issue.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Like all good admins, he had a spare hard drive space squirrelled away, unallocated. Just in case.<\/p>\n<p>Sacrificing his stash, he rebooted, applied the patch to fix the patch (very Microsoft, these days) and\u2026 all the file sizes were corrected and the files themselves accessible once more.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mail was once again flowing, and files served,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I would love to say the users remained oblivious, but alas, they were all quite aware of the day-and-a-half outage caused by some software that did not play in the sandbox with others.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While patching has spread to every part of modern life (no, we don&#8217;t know why our microwave demanded a software update last weekend either), quality has not always kept pace.
