FWIW, the README.SRV file for AIX says: When the 5.3 server starts existing FILE volumes in FILLING state are marked as full.
In 5.2.x and prior servers, the server accepted a PATH definition for a local FILE Library and FILE drives, although it was not used in any way. Such definitions are not accepted by a 5.3 server and are rejected. This could be problematic if these definitions are contained in a devconfig file, and must be removed manually.

Very smooth upgrade (from 5.2.3), runs OK. We did hit a bug with FILE volumes, and cannot reliably use FILE volumes. Fortunately, it was quite easily worked around by temporarily using DISK volumes. Not running the Administration Center here: command line only. Nice new features are Collocation Groups, the (optional) elimination of the need to issue REPLY to commands and the Offsite Reclamation limit. Nice features on the client side: the ability for the TDPs to "plug-in" into the Web-interface of the standard client, so you can do TDP for Domino-restore from the regular Web-client. -- Jurjen Oskam "E-mail has just erupted like a weed, and instead of considering what to say when they write, people now just let thoughts drool out onto the screen." - R.
