Hi Resi,

you can restore the "last known good" version of the parameter
file with the command "param_restore 1". Execute this command
at the command line (with dbmcli or Instance->Command Line in
the DBMGui). After this try again to add the devspace.

If this doesnt work, we need the command line again in mode admin:

  util_execute ADD DATA DEVSPACE '<name>' PAGES <numofpages> DEVICE <devspacenumber>
  param_adddevspace <devspacenumber> DATA <name> <type> <numofpages> 

  <name> is the name of the file or raw device
  <numofpages> size of the device in pages (8 KB)
  <devspacenumber> number of the new devspace (existing + 1)
  <type> type of new devspace F for file, R for raw device

I hope this helps.

Bernd
