Lizette, DASD-wise, not sure if you've looked already, but the DB2 V8 Installation Guide has dump data set size storage requirements in Chapter 2. IBM support notes that "... summary data in dumps is usually enough to diagnose most problems".

We had MAXSPACE set at 4500M and it still was not enough. I do have the Dump Data sets SMS managed and STRIPPED (extended format) so that part should not be a problem. Or is there a way to calculate how much MAXSPACE will be needed by DB2?
