This article was previously published under Q213196

SYMPTOMS

The Software Metering Client Agent suspends software metering operations on the client when the computer's hard disk is nearly full. This behavior is independent of the roll that the computer has.

MORE INFORMATION

If the free disk space on the software metering client falls below 200 KB, the client suspends software metering functions without writing a log file entry. Once the client is in suspend mode, it checks every 60 seconds to see if the free disk space available has risen above 200 KB. If at least this much space again becomes available, the client resumes operation and writes the following log file entry: 

Drive space now available - Resuming Client
