Last night this happened to me and after struggling to get it back up I don't understand why what I had in place to help with this seems to be worthless or I just don't understand why I am getting what I am. Maybe someone can explain to me why it seems the extend gives an error even though there is space available.
This is what I have available for logs: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:dsmserv display logvol ANR0900I Processing options file dsmserv.opt. ANR7811I Direct I/O will be used for all eligible disk files.

The question is did it work or not. If not why? There is plenty of unused space available. Did I define the command wrong?
