Indeed. Raise a PMR for progress message, something like this 'Expanding <name of object> - 10% completed.'. >>I hope that while this formatting was going on that the systems were not hung >>up and that they were running normally using the original extents while the >>E2 system was formatting the new extent (but not yet using it). Monitors like RMF or JES2MON (?) could tell you, but I prefer progress messages or messages about changing rate of progress. Something like this 'Expanding 20% complete. Now processing x bytes per second.' >I didn't specificlly look for, but have not seen or heard of any problems >while the space was being formatted. In summary, the expansion ran smooth. Good. Better.
