Hello Everyone

I am terribly short of disc space on my HP3000 as follows

I hope you can read the above !!!

I believe I can use volutil to change the maximum from 75% to 95% and that
will allow my available permanent space to increase.

Is this a good thing to do ?

If it is a good thing then should I set it to 95% or can you suggest a
better value ?

Should I do a system store first ?

Can it be done without a reboot ?


Thanks for any help

Chris
