Filling it up doesn't hurt anything (but the process(es) trying to write to the TFS). From what I remember (and I haven't looked into this for a long time) TFS storage is "carved out" from the kernel. All that means is less storage available to the kernel, which depending on your environment and size of all your TFS file systems could be an impact. Since you cross posted to OMVS list, you'll probably get much better information there. If I'm totally off my rocker, please let me know. I'm subscribed to that list, but I am set to no-mail and don't normally follow it.
