You can always update individual LPPs, or selected sets.  When you get the 
menu of updateable LPPs, just type in the numbers of the ones you want to
update this go-round.  Also, look in the manual for the 'cleanup' command.
This command allows you to move service "save sets" off of your filesystem
and onto long-term storage, like a floppy or tape.  This should free up a
lot of space for you.
