No nailing required. WARM start will work fine for the existing files,
but CP will not allocate any new space on that volume for non-DUMP
files. The files already have data on that volume will remain there until
they are removed from spool.

Cool...it's been a while since I've come to your session, I may just
have to chair it this time ;)
