Off the top of my head try the command with just M. +16M
Or check the logical volume that you don't have a max set on "Max Number of Logical Partitions".
Good luck.

Is rootvg and/or /usr mirrored?

It appears that hdisk0 in the MISSING state and is stale.

Either unmirror/rmlvcopy /usr or fix hdisk0 and re-run the command.

at a very high level i feel there is some problem with inodes...if you have too many small files in the filesystem.
