FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
Progress 9.x

FIX:
Forcing into a database is only done when there are no other acceptable options. It is always the customers decision after being made aware of the consequences of forcing into the database. Please read solution P24330 on the consequences of it use.
To force into the database when getting SYSTEM ERROR: File <file-name> too small 0, blocksize <blocksize> extend failed." (4524) that references a bi file, follow the steps below:
1. Rename the current bi file on disk that is mentioned in the error message.
2. Rename the current dbname.st file
3. Create a current st file by running prostrct list dbname.
4. Run prostrct unlock dbname -extents. (that determines what extents should be present and recreates any that are missing, thus giving us a new bi extent on disk.)
5. Run proutil dbname -C truncate bi -F
6. Start the database
