RE: increase ROOTSIZE

ROOTSIZE is set during initialization of the database server. Just like any dbspace add another chunk to increase the size of the dbspace. So if you want to increase the size of the root dbspace, you just add another chunnk to the root dbspace using onspaces.

Could someone please give a quick procedure to do it. I would like to increase ROOTSIZE from 20000 to 30000 for both Online 5.x and IDS 9.2.

I thank for the responses but what do I need to do to change the ROOTSIZE parameter in the onconfig file after the engine has been initialized ?
