something wrong here - my experience was that db2 would start using any sms volume as soon as it was enabled.
I would suggest open an incident with IBM. Some things to check in DB2 the STOGROUP should have volumes (*) the priquty and secqty for the db2 tablespace and index spaces should be large enough to get to the next dataset limit (whether it is the default 2G or larger) were there many small extents because the volumes got fragmented? each allocation can take up to 5 extents and DB2 is still limited to 251 extents for a multivolume dataset. once DB2 gets to 251 extents the only way to clear that is reorg or manual copy. was there a failure message? - I always issued a -start database spacenam DB2 command to clear any leftover status from the failure -- Mike ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
