It's automatic. The disk allocation is either part of or linked to from the inode; the file system makes such space available when both the link count and busy count on a regular file inode go to zero. Only if the system crashes and you're using a non-journaling file system (e.g., ext2, FAT32) would you need to run fsck. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
