Action<br />

This is generally not a system message from the kernel, but an error returned by an<br />

application. Contact the vendor or author of the application for an update.<br />

Technical Notes<br />

The symbolic name for this error is ENOTSUP, errno=48.<br />

No utmpx entry<br />

Cause<br />

During login file system full errors are seen and login fails with the message<br />

No utmpx entry.<br />

This is caused by a full file system so that the system has no space to write its utmpx<br />

(login info) entry.<br />

Action<br />

To get around this condition the system must be booted into single user mode. Then<br />

clear (do not delete) the files: /var/adm/utmp and /var/adm/utmpx. This can be<br />

done by typing:<br />

#cat /dev/null > /var/adm/utmp<br />

#cat /dev/null > /var/adm/utmpx<br />

These commands zero out the files but keep it with the correct permissions.<br />

In some cases after clearing these files the /var filesystem may still be full. In this<br />

case type:<br />

du -askd /var |sort -nr |more<br />

This will give you a listing of the files from largest to smallest in the /var filesystem.<br />

To create space you can zero the files: /var/cron/log, /var/spool/lp/logs, and<br />

/var/adm/messages. You can also check /.wastebasket for large files to delete.<br />
