# Vulnerability DB update failed due to insufficient disk space

## Problem

The Vulnerability DB update fails due to insufficient disk space on the server.

## Cause

- Inadequate disk space on the server where the **desktopcentral** database is located, preventing the allocation of additional storage for data.
- The Autogrowth settings may be disabled or set to a small increment, hindering automatic expansion for new data.
- Failure to routinely monitor and maintain the database's storage can lead to unexpected errors. This includes regularly checking disk space, managing database growth, and reviewing file group settings.

## Resolution

Follow the steps given below to resolve this issue:

- Free up disk space by deleting unnecessary files, adding additional files to the primary file group or adjusting Autogrowth settings for existing files.
- You can enable Autogrowth checkbox from the SQL Server Management Studio. To learn more about this, [click here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/troubleshoot/winautomation/support-tips/processrobot-process-studio/could-not-allocate-space-for-object-error-message).

- In the Autogrowth settings, the **Maximum File Size** limit might have exceeded the previously set threshold. To resolve this issue, you can choose **Unlimited**.
