Stefan provided answers, I'm curious though. Each of your "vtapes" is 75GB. From your past experience in the amdump reports, how full have they been? If they have regularly been half or more, say 40GB/amdump run, does your total disk storage allocated for vtapes support this? I.e. it will take perhaps 17*40GB or 680GB total for your collection of vtapes. Of course now that you are filling 75GB vtapes, and considering making them 100GB, will you be allocating a terrabyte of disk storage to your vtapes? I guess what I'm driving at, is your problem that 75GB per vtape is too small or is the "total" storage capacity too small. Did the file system run out of space? -- Jon H.
