From my experience with ADSM 3.1.0.50, I would say that the steps outlined
by Roy are perfect, provided the file system (/adsm/db ?) contains enough
free space. The FORMATSIZE parameter of the DEF DBVOL command allocates
the file - no need to run dsmfmt. Has this changed in TSM 3.7? I cannot
believe that.
Don't forget that after EXTEND DB the next DB backup must be a full backup.
