>        Error writing file /dbaa1vp0/db, errno = 27

Jon - From  http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts :

dsmfmt errno 27 (EFBIG - File too       It may be that your Unix "filesize"
 large)                                 limit prohibits writing a file that
                                        large.  Do 'limit filesize' to
check.
                                        If that value is too small, try
                                        'unlimit filesize'.  If that doesn't
                                        boost the value, you need to change
the
                                        limit value that the operating
system
                                        imposes upon you (in AIX, change
                                        /etc/security/limits).
                                        Another cause: the JFS file system
not
                                        configured to allow "large files"
                                        (greater than 2 GB), per Large File
                                        Enabled.  Do 'lsfs -q' and look for
the
                                        "bf" value: if "false", not in
effect.
