Not Enough Disk Space
---------------------

Warning!
This installation requires 2,581.48 MB of free disk space, but there are only
1,963.43 MB available at:
/opt/CA
PRESS TO RECALCULATE AVAILABLE DISK SPACE, OR TYPE 'QUIT' TO EXIT THE INSTALLER:
Environment
All supported Performance Management releases
Cause
In some OS versions the OS routine to check the space does not pickup the correct free disk space if the destination directory is a mount point.
This can be seen for all Performance Management environment components.
Resolution
Use the -DCHECK_DISK_SPACE=OFF switch when executing the installer will bypass the space check.
For example on a Data Aggregator we would run:
./installDA.bin -DCHECK_DISK_SPACE=OFF
On Performance Center we would run:
./CAPerfCenterSetup.bin -DCHECK_DISK_SPACE=OFF
Additional Information
This is resolved in versions 20.2.4 and higher
But the DCHECK_DISK_SPACE=OFF option is still available
