Excellent. This leads me through to the -V flag on the mkdvd command.
This specifies a volume group with sufficent space, or you can nominate existing mounted filesystems with -C & -I
Lots more options on the manual page for mkdvd so you can script/automate this as required rather than fill in the smit panels each time.

Well, I'm chuffed to have learned something new! Thanks ibmtech!
