This morning we received a TSM alert: The database utilization is too high. Condition (85.1 > 85) Recommendation: Consider a database space trigger or increase the size of the database.
Going back through my daily TSM reports I have seen that the database utilization has increased from 60% to 85% over the past few months. This is to be expected as we are performing more backups than previously. Is it correct that I should use the extend db command to do this? The q db command shows that the database is 32 Gb in size. On the server I have 24 Gb of free space so I have room to extend the size of the database. The one thing that confuses me is this statement in the help extend db command: Attention: You cannot change the size of an allocated database volume after it has been defined to Tivoli Storage Manager. If you do, Tivoli Storage Manager may not initialize correctly and data could be lost. Can someone clarify this statement for me and confirm that using the extend db command is the correct way to do this. Thanks Paul Paul Dudley ANL IT Operations Dept.
