Hi list,

I'm running 8.2.4 and I've started to get these messages and even
though I googled for some answers I couldn't find any good info
against the 8.2 code base.

Right now I use the default setting.

Is there any idea of raising these at all if I can't move them to a
separate disk?

Yes. Just make sure you have enough diskspace for them before you do it.
