Creation error when using Flash Backup

I recently upgraded from 6.6.3 to 6.10.3.  I took a flash backup before upgrading with no issues.  After upgrading I tried to take a Flash Backup again.  However, I now get an error "Creation error. Insufficient free disk space available".  I had the same error on another identical server.  Not sure what I did but it is now working on the other server.  There is 3.5 GB free on the 4 GB flash drive.

 

I've attached the syslog but it doesn't seem to be capturing the latest data.  It's showing about 1pm when it's actually 9pm.

 

Let me know if I can provide anything additional

 

Thanks in advance.

I would guess that the issue is lack of RAM, you only run with 2GB. The OS is installed in RAM, so the 'disk space' would be RAM.

 

The minimum requirement has been 4GB for some time.

Maybe removing the 'previous' directory on the flashdrive could help ? It's the previous OS version for easy roll back, but you already have a backup of that.

(that is, if 6.6.3 already provided that feature)
