Hi Steve, It's been my experience that when AIX systems are setup, there are quite a few free PPs (physical partitions) that are left unused. You may be able to enlarge the filesystem in question via smitty (smit in CDE/X). If you need help beyond this initial pointer, you may wish to call your IBM support folks. This is fairly simple and can be done without having to backup (though recommended). It should be done with nobody on the system, however. if you're a command-line type of guy like I am, you can use: chfs -a size="NNNNNNNN" /filesystem where NNNNNNNN = new larger size in 512-byte blocks. You can see what size your filesystems are now by typing: lsfs at a # prompt.
