The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
You've already received the good advice about RTVDIRINF/PRTDIRINF.
Although I will caution you on some machines (that normally kick some
serious butt) it can run for hours and hours. They do much stupid stuff.
May even check QNTC. Running them in debug shows the worlds worst SQL
utilization by PRTDIRINF.
I've seen up to 30% of the entire disk used by
/QIBM/UserData/OS400/MGTC/service You can verify that with Jeff Crosby. I
think he saw 18%.
What would be nice is a drill down into the files created by RTVDIRINF.
Like the size sorting and drill down of:
Object Link Type Size
Z DIR 2197845723
NOTES01 DIR 1982237961
QIBM DIR 432105265
...
Click on NOTES01 and see it's subdirectories and stream files sorted by
size. Drill down into one directory and see it's subdirectories and
stream files sorted by size...
iNav has potential but has some fundamental flaws.
1 - The screen doesn't display size for directories in the list in the
right panel.
2 - iNav cannot handle large file sizes. For instance, I can right click
on a directory and get it's properties. Storage tab will show Total data
size. I've seen this be as low as half of what is reported in PRTDIRINF.
Independent IFS tools are closer to PRTDIRINF. IBM declared this a
documented limitation.
