Checking out the Paging Space option under the Physical and Logical
Storage option in SMIT...

Dear Netters,
     What is the procedure of increasing the pageing space? Currently
we have 30MB of paging space and would like to expand to 100MB. It seems
that I have to free some logical partition first, I can not simply specify
a directory as extra paging space. By the way, the machine is RS6000/320.
     Thanks in advance.

Dear Netters,
     What is the procedure of increasing the pageing space? Currently
we have 30MB of paging space and would like to expand to 100MB. It seems
that I have to free some logical partition first, I can not simply specify
a directory as extra paging space. By the way, the machine is RS6000/320.
     Thanks in advance.

You can only add paging space from free physical partitions.  SMIT will do it
for you.
