You can either create a new dbspace or append more space (additional
chunks to use the vernacular) to an existing dbspace. You can do this
using the onspaces utility (onspaces without args prints usage) or on
UNIX versions the onmonitor application. I do hope you do not have
your data in the root dbspace. Since you do not know about dbspaces
and chunks I can only assume that you do. This is very bad and you
should have one or more separate dbspace(s) for you data.
