I believe the problem is with sparse files (that are created by CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE ...) since QIO cannot handle them. So, I would create (and use) a normal temporary tablespace (our good old TEMP tablespace) on QIO. I would not, however, use QIO for a TEMPORARY tablespace, i.e. one used for placing temporay tables. Does this clear the confusion? See MetaClunk Note:6224.1 and Note:121732.1. As long as you follow the Veritas instructions for creating the TEMP tablespace anew, there should be no issues.
