Bug Description

Christian reports in the forums that TKLBAM restore gets stuck when there is insufficient HDD space available. It seems that TKLBAM restore temporarily stores files in /tmp during restore process - meaning that HDD needs to be bigger than than the size of restored files (how much bigger?) Currently TKLBAM does not seem to check for this nor give a clear error message when it occurs.

This bug has been sort of resolved. It is no longer an issue with AWS/EC2 instances as it maps /tmp to /mnt/tmp (which has tons of space). But as TKLBAM is still not check for available space on the filesystem, it remains a potential issue for VM instances (and HDD installed instances with very small primary hard drives).
