The maximum theoretical size of one paging device is 64 GB. You have paging device hd6 which is 6 GB. Theoretically you can expand it by 56 GB.
Before expanding you have to answer the following questions:
- how much memory does your application require?
- is it possible to buy more memory, if the LPAR doesn't have enough, or to move it to another server?
- how did it happen, that you have 47% used in paging space? Which processes are now in the paging space and which of the running processes overuse the memory resources you have?
After you answered the questions and if you still want to have more paging space, you can look in rootvg using lsvg rootvg, if you have enough space in the volume group, and then create additional paging space with mkps or expand the existing with chps.

munlock
MUNLOCK(2) Linux Programmer's Manual MUNLOCK(2)
NAME
munlock - reenable paging for some parts of memory
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/mman.h>
int munlock(const void *addr, size_t len);
DESCRIPTION
munlock reenables paging for the memory in the range starting at addr with length len bytes. All pages which contain a part of the speci-
fied memory range can after calling munlock be moved to external swap space again by the kernel.
Memory locks do not stack, i.e., pages which have been locked several times by calls to mlock or mlockall will be unlocked by a single call
to munlock for the corresponding range or by munlockall. Pages which are mapped to several locations or by several processes stay locked
into RAM as long as they are locked at least at one location or by at least one process.
On POSIX systems on which mlock and munlock are available, _POSIX_MEMLOCK_RANGE is defined in <unistd.h> and the value PAGESIZE from <lim-
its.h> indicates the number of bytes per page.
RETURN VALUE
On success, munlock returns zero. On error, -1 is returned, errno is set appropriately, and no changes are made to any locks in the
address space of the process.
ERRORS
ENOMEM Some of the specified address range does not correspond to mapped pages in the address space of the process.
EINVAL len was not a positive number.
