PLA_E_TOO_MANY_FOLDERS
Folder retention is evaluated before a Data Collector Set starts
PLA_E_TOO_MANY_FOLDERS indicates that the output tree under RootPath has reached a limit enforced by the associated IDataManager. PLA decorates subdirectory names for each run or segment, so one set can accumulate many historical folders even when individual log files are small.
Inspect MaxFolderCount, the selected resource policy, folder actions, and the actual directories under the root. A cleanup rule may be disabled, unable to delete protected folders, or waiting for age and size conditions that have not both become true. Removing an unrelated ETL file does not correct a folder-count violation; retention must reduce the number of managed run directories.
Retention state to capture
- Configured MaxFolderCount and ResourcePolicy.
- Current decorated folders beneath RootPath.
- Folder ownership, ACLs, and active handles.
- Last Data Manager cleanup or report-processing result.
