titleWhen starting a remote vis session, I get the error "Xrdp failed to start"

This can occur when your /home drive is full and the remote vis system cannot create the required temporary files.


Check your available quota with the below command:

Code Block
quota

The output should resemble the following

Code Block
-bash-4.2$ quota
Disk quotas for user XXX (uid XXX): 
		Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit grace 
netapp00:/vol/home 
				1048576* 1048576 1048576 1890 104857600 104857600

If the first number is equal to or exceeds the second number (quota), then you will need to free up some space. It is also possible to exceed the file count limit (4th and 5th number), In which case you will need to delete some of your data with lots of small files.


A detailed explanation and guide on how to do this can be found in the supercomputing documentation: Quota Limit on your home area
