Hi,

As mentioned in previous thread, we're playing with 10.4 on Linux, and I'm new to the VME/FSI world!

Is it possible to increase the size of the VME without a re-install? In the D3Vme.ini file there are these statements:

<pre>[d3vme.disks.0]
name                           = Disk0.d3
size                           = 1024000
offset                         = 0
</pre>

I tried adding a [d3vme.disks.1] to mimic the adding a disk to the old pick0 file, but the system wasn't fooled!

Any ideas?

Thanks

Tom

Why do you need to increase the size ? All your data files should reside in the FSI. (Make sure you do "restore-accounts (r" to restore to FSI).

On my install, default VME is 4Gb and 1% used. FSI is completely dynamic.
