I got the ANS9082W, even when there had been NO users on the filessystem,
and the dsmreconcile ran on a clean filesystem. And the premigrdb.pag had
59MB. BTW I noticed this error in May '97 and I fixed it on Sept 5th,
might be, this caused the premigrdb to grow that much. The /home/ea
filesystem is 4.5 GB physical space and ddf reports:

Filesystem      State   KB      KB      Files   Files   Inodes  KB

/home/ea          a     8779776 1303384 40743   50106   961704  1367216


The following describes the situation AFTER moving the premigrdb.* files
and running fixfsm and dsmreconcile on this filesystem.

After doing the fixfsm, the ANS9082W never occured on the console again.
