Issue/Introduction

Deliver databases was 97% full and the checkpoint file is 84% full. Ran an RMODBASE UNLOAD to create a backup and then ran an RMODBASE ADDDS to add more space to the database. Is there an option to add space to a checkpoint dataset?  

To resolve the issues do we shutdown the Deliver tasks and create a new-named larger database (ADDDS) and a new, empty, larger checkpoint file (MAKECKPT)?

Environment

Release : Deliver 14.0

Resolution

Here is a link to a technical document on how to add space to the checkpoint file:  Article ID - 128383 : How to add space to the checkpoint file

Note that  empty-opt parameter in the RMODBASE MAKECKPT command specifies whether a new, empty checkpoint is to be created, if one exists. If you specify EMPTY, a new, empty checkpoint is created.  This operand is optional. If omitted, data from the old, existing checkpoint (if it exists) is copied to the new checkpoint.
