You need to have disk space you can use on the system first. Then you need
to format some dbvolumes, define them into TSM and then extend the database.

Outside of TSM do: dsmfmt -db -m /path/filename.db ###  (Where ### is size
in MB)
In TSM do: define dbvolume /path/filename.db
             extend db ###

Then, if you have a mirrored db, repeat the process, but instead of defining
a dbvolume, you are defining a dbcopy (define dbcopy /path/filename.db
/path/filename.mirror.db)
