Experience during testing suggests that my ADSM server on VM needs a lot
more space than I gave it.  The ADSM Administrator's Guide mentions using
DSMINST to add DB space and says you don't have to take the server down to
do this, but I'm at least a little confused by this.  For one thing,
DSMINST gives dire warnings about reinitializing everything.

How do I add more minidisks to my database?

Do I FORMAT and RESERVE them myself?

Do I ignore DSMINST's warnings as long as I don't say that the existing
disks need formatting?

Does anyone have an EXEC they can post to run on another userid before the
server links to the disks?

Sigh,
Nick
