The ccmsrv expand command increases the
size of the database server space.
Synopsis
ccmsrv expand [-d|-dbspace dbspace_name] [-o|-offset chunkpath_offset]
[-s|-server servername] -size KBytes -p|-path chunkpath [-y]
Uses
You must run this command
on the database server, as user informix.
Use
the ccmsrv expand command to increase the size of
database server dbspace by adding a chunk file. This command is useful
when you want to increase the size of a server that is running low
on dbspace.
Note: Do not use an existing file.

information, see Increasing the database server dbspace
Options and arguments
- -d|-dbspace dbspace_name
- Specifies the dbspace. By default, the ccm dbspace
is used. Possible dbspace names are as follows: root, log, ccm,
and temp. For more information, see Informix database server dbspaces.
- -o|-offset chunkpath_offset
- Specifies the offset to the chunk path if you are creating a database
server using a raw partition. The default offset is zero.
- -p|-path chunkpath
- Specifies the path to the new chunk file.
- You can give the full path of the new chunk file, or you can give
a directory path. If you specify a directory, the default next name
(for example, ccm.001, ccm.002, ccm.003) is the name
of the new chunk file.
- -s|-server servername
- Specifies the name of the database server. The default is the
server on the current machine.
- -size KBytes
- Specifies the chunk size in KB.
- -y
- Executes the command without displaying confirmation messages.
Example
Expand the ccm dbspace
by 100 MB by adding the /vol/data/informix_chunkfiles2 chunk
file directory.
$ ccmsrv expand -dbspace ccm -size 100000
-path /vol/data/ informix_chunkfiles2
The new chunk
file name is the existing chunk file name, incremented by 1. For example,
if the last chunk file created was named ccm.001,
the new chunk file name is ccm.002.
