Werner, I _DO_ think, that insufficient space actually is the reason. I had a similar situation last year, when I tried to load a database originally sized less than 25 GB (i don't remeber the exact numbers). I needed several attempts and only after spending more than 40 GB, the LOADDB succeeded.

For sake of shortness I have described our problem not very exactly. I should have mentioned that we have first tried db backup/restore. Unfortunately restore db failed several times. We have been told by IBM support that the reason for the failure is an inconsistency in the database and that audi
