Kelli,

just three steps:
1. Create raw volume (mklv -y <volume name> -t tsmdbvol <volume group>
<size in partitions>) or file volume (dsmfmt -g -db <file name> <size in
GB>). Commands have to be performed in AIX shell.
2. Define newly created volume to TSM - 'define dbvolume /dev/r<volume
name>' or 'define dbvolume <file name>'. Command has to be performed from
administrative client session.
3. Extend the DB - 'extend db <number of pages>'

Subject:        Extend DB

Can someone please give me the exact steps to add db space on TSM 4.1.5
running on AIX 4.3.3?  I am certainly not an AIX guru so please spare no
details!  My db is running at 88% and I have 0 for for Maximum Extension.
How do I go about doing this?




Thanks so much!
