I also try to keep it simple and these are the steps I perform for re-sizing 
the HSM cluster. Beside the shutdown and start up commands, all else is within 
a single batch job.

1) Shut down HSM.
2) Run a listcat of the HSM cluster.
3) Back up the HSM cluster to tape.
4) Export the file via IDCAMS to a PS file.
5) Delete the KSDS.
6) Redefine the KSDS with more space as needed, it move it to another volume - 
whatever needs to be done.
7) Import the IDCAMS export back into the new HSM cluster.
8) Run a listcat to make sure the record count looks right.
9) Start up HSM and test a file recall and a file migrate process.

That will usually take care of it and it all can be done within 5 minutes or 
less.

Hope that helps somewhat as it works fine for our shop.
