Hi Ben,
This is not the correct way to increase the size of the database and
sounds very dangerous to me. The correct procedure is to create new
database volumes, in your case of 500MB, and then define new volumes
(DEFINE DBVOLUME ... and DEFINE DBCOPY ...). If you really do want to
have one 1000MB volume, you would need to do a full db backup, shut down
the server, DSMFMT new 1000MB volumes, DSMSERV INSTALL (or for V3,
DSMSERV FORMAT) the new volume, DSMSERV RESTORE DB, start the server,
and finally define the mirror (DEFINE DBCOPY ...).

Subject: Extending DB
OK what did I miss? I had a 500MB database; mirrored. I
deleted
one of the mirrored volumes and recreated it with the size of
1000MB.
Then I sync'd the copy. I then deleted the other database
volume
and also recreated it with the size of 1000MB. Then I added it
back and sync'd it. So, I should now be able to extend my
database
size by 500MB more right? No it tells me space available is
still only
500MB. Where is the new 500MB hiding?
Any help out there?
thanks Ben
