No CD's or optical carts in any drives.

If I use WRKLNK, I can't see anything in QOPT if the CD drive is empty.

If I use qshell and do a ls -al on the QOPT directory, I see the following:

ls -al
total: 2.097 gigabytes
drwxrwxrwx   2 QDFTOWN  0            2147483647              .
drwxrwsrwx  27 QSYS     0                294912 Mar 13 10:04 ..

If this isn't really anything, then I'm not worried.  I can't claim to know
much about the workings of the iSeries, but the people around here who do
have no idea what this is, and that worries me.

QOPT is all of your optical drives.  If you put in a CD in a drive you
should be able to do a WRKLNK '/QOPT' and use option 5 to tree down that
directory.

The good news is that it's not tying up any disk space.  Look elsewhere
for your problem.  :-)

Our program to compare IFS sizes ignores QOPT, QFileSvr.400, and any
symbolic links.

We run it every day.  At the end of the run it runs a summary report of
the last two days.  You can call the summary report directly to compare
two different dates.  It also sends us an email every day if any
particular ifs object exceeds a set growth.  It also sends us an email if
any IFS directory exceeds a set growth.

Sample summary report (pretty awesome daily growth - and this is nothing
out of the ordinary on our system).

Stupid question, I'm sure, but does anyone know what this is?  The QOPT
directory is supposedly 2.097 gig, and the QDFTOWN directory is most of
that.  Just wondering...
