This is the IFSTOOL tool library that has QRYIFSLIB
http://www-912.ibm.com/s_dir/slkbase.NSF/0/3976fed8ab10134b862568b60071ccd3?OpenDocument

I am trying to get a list of what is in the IFS as shown under Navigator's Root directory into a database so I can monitor what's using space. Where growth is. What I might want to clean up. I first got curious because I turned on the print option on the SAV command we use to backup the IFS and noticed that every night the report is getting longer. Even over a weekend when no one is at work. Report showed 265,120 objects on 2/21, 265,408 on 2/22 and 265,416 on 2/23. The college was closed all three days yet we added almost 300 objects to the IFS (no users have direct access to the IFS). I wanted to do a snapshot to a database of object counts by directory and then compare that to a second snapshot a few days from now to see where the objects are being created.

QRYIFSLIB started at 9:15 this morning and is still running. Right now it appears to be attempting to contact every windows server we have because it wants to report on the QNTC directory but the user does not have credentials on any windows server so they just time out. So far it was only done QOpenSys, QSYS.LIB and QNTC, all directories I don't care about.

Subject: Re: RTVDIRINF question

Hi Mike,

Is there a magic way to make the RTVDIRINF command only process the
directories that are listed in the Root directory as presented by
iSeries Navigator?

I don't know of any way to do this with RTVDIRINF -- and I'm not
familiar with QRYIFSLIB. I'm wondering, however, what you're trying to
accomplish?

I've written quite a few utilities that work with IFS directories, if
you can explain what you're trying to accomplish, maybe one of them
would fit the bill?
