[Avid-L2] Open Ended or long captures create an error message on unity?

 

Today I found I couldn't capture anything longer than 8:15 at DNX 220 or approx 12:15 at DNX 145 on our fibre attached Unity.  SNDX  6.0.3.2 Mac OS 10.7.4 and fibre manager V 5.5.1.  The error I get is File 'Volumes/i80//Avid MediaFiles/MXF/zNITRIS02.1/Creating/Creating18' not found.  Earlier in the day I got a similar prompt when importing to a different workspace on a different project and it turned out the workspace was almost full.  In the current case there is over 100 gigs of free space in the two different workspaces I've tried.  Even trying to capy a 9 gig mxf file at the finder level with a workspace with 150 gigs free errors out at about 3 plus gigs into the transfer.  I'm told by the AE something happened and an allocation group renamed itself as a name identical or maybe similar to another allocation group and perhaps this is the culprit.  They want to optimize the system but we are slammed right now.  Just curious what the Unity
gurus think and can suggest.  I do realize V6 isn't qualified/supported for this older Unity but it has been working for them for quite a while without significant issues.  Is this the kind of whacky behavior that might be expected when a Unity hasn't been optimized in a while.  Needless to say there is no onsite maintenance crew.  TIA
