Oracle Database Error ACFS-03149: Path Name Exceeds System Limit
Description
The ACFS-03149 error indicates that a file or directory path name being processed by Oracle Automatic Storage Management Cluster File System (ACFS) has exceeded the maximum length allowed by the underlying operating system or ACFS itself. This typically occurs during operations such as creating new files, moving directories, or accessing deeply nested file structures.
Error Message
constructed path name is longer than system limit of number characters
Known Causes
4 known causesExcessively Deep Directory Structure
Creating or operating on files within a directory structure that has too many subdirectories can lead to a path name exceeding the system limit.
Long File or Directory Names
Individual file or directory names that are unusually long contribute significantly to the overall path length, potentially hitting the system limit.
Migration from Different Filesystem Limits
Copying files or directories from a system with a higher path limit to an ACFS volume with a lower effective limit can trigger this error.
Application-Generated Long Paths
Applications or scripts that programmatically construct file paths might inadvertently create paths that exceed the ACFS or operating system limits.
