How to add a database extent

FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 9.x

FIX:

Before proceeding with the following, please backup your database. The following procedure is extremely low-risk, but it's always a good practice to back the database up before any change.

1) Build a structure file that contains only the new extent(s) that you need to add. You can add multiple extents to multiple storage areas at the same time. Extents need not be in the same directory as the .db file.
2) Shut down the database.
3) Run:

   prostrct add <db> <structure file name>

4) Update the database's structure file by running:

   prostrct list <db>

5) Start the database up again.
