Re: [ADSM-L] TSM v6 active log filespace

Yes, if both active and archive fill you get a crashed system, unless you just 
lucked out and it switched to archivelogoverflow in time, or a long-running 
task cleared up and let the active log transactions clear out before you died.
Go figure.

That makes senses, except that archivelog is less than 10% full.  If both 
active log and archivelog were full, don't you get a crashed system?  TSM did 
not reflect an error.

Too many mysteries. Not enough time.

Usually it's because the archivelog filesystem is full.
In V6, the active log file size in dsmserv.opt is just a starting point, not a 
limit.
It's not preformatted in V6.
If the archivelog space fills, V6 just keeps writing to the active log space.

Under what conditions will tsm try to increase the size of the active log?  I 
thought it was preformated and then did not change in size?

The reason I ask is that I got a file system full error in errpt (AIX
5.3) for my tsm active log file system for a TSM that has been in use for a 
couple of weeks now.
