If the file system is a TFS, you are pretty much out of luck, You will possibly need to restart OMVS after modifying BPXPRMxx for the mount point /TMP. Check the fine manuals. There is a parameter on the TFS mount command the defines the VS allocated to /TMP. A remount of the file system *MAY* work here. Much less disruptive than an OMVS restart.
If the physical file system is a HFS, you are in better shape. An OMVS restart is probably not needed. You will need allocate/define a new HFS and then UNMOUNT the original and mount the new one. If the physical file system is a ZFS, you can use the zfsadm grow command. See z/OS xxxxxx Distributed File Service zFS Administration SC24-5989-xx. Select the appropriate manual for your release. HTH, <snip> First of let me apologize for my OMVS ignorance. Other than using the basic set it and forget it parameters of OMVS we have never had to touch it. Now we are developing an app that may keep the mainframe around a long time that provides and consumes Web Services. Long story short, my /tmp file is full and I cant figure out what is taking the space. Using the LS command there are only about 5 files in there and they are smal 30-50 blocks(?) apiece of the 28000 that are allocated. The syslog file is there also but when I cat that there only is a hand full of records in there. Other than that I see nothing. A. How do tell what is allocated that space and/or 2 how can I make /tmp larger on the fly? </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
