Migration Analysis used to run autonomous AP during discovery can be configured by selecting the Run 
Autonomous AP Migration Analysis on discovery check box in the Administrator > Settings > CLI 
Session page. By default, this option is disabled.

The Aeroscout engine fails to start MSE if the importing map names contain special characters such as 
'&'.

You can monitor the current disk usage from the NCS > Administration > Appliance page.

When the NCS backup background task fails, it indicates there is an issue with disk space. Choose NCS 
> Administration > Background Tasks to check the status of the NCS Backup Task.

We recommend the following to effectively utilize and manage disk space in the NCS server:

Clean up some of the old files in the /dev/mapper/smosvg-localdiskvol partition so that there is some 
space available in this partition. This partition is the user-accessible area of the disk where any 
reports, FTP files, and local repository files are stored. This partition should have some free space 
so that files can be stored in this location. If this partition is full then any attempt to store files will 
fail.

There are two ways to clean up the files located in this partition:

Log in to NCS CLI as an admin User and enter the delete disk:/dir/filename command to delete 
files from the /dev/mapper/smosvg-localdiskvol partition.

Log in to NCS CLI as an admin User and enter the ncs cleanup command. You are prompted 
to confirm if you want to delete all files in the local disk partition.

Configure the NCS backup background task so that it uses a remote repository. This helps you to 
manage the space in the local disk partition effectively. You can configure a remote repository using 
any of the following protocols:

FTP

NFS

SFTP

TFTP

Example remote repository configuration:

ncs-appliance/admin# configure

Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

ncs-appliance/admin(config)# repository remote_repository

ncs-appliance/admin(config-Repository)# url ?

  <WORD>  Enter repository URL, including server and path info (Max Size - 80)

  cdrom:  Local CD-ROM drive (read only)

  disk:   Local hard disk storage
