Re: Speed on 3581 LTO-2 Tape Drive

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

The reason I asked about the tape color is because I believe the purple 
tapes go into a 3582, not a 3581.  You had me confused with 3581 LTO-2.

We have a little utility that counts up our ifs sizes, ignoring all 
symbolic links and anything in QSYS.LIB or QDLS.  That reports our current 
IFS size at 45,952 objects.  And the results of this weeks 
RTVDSKINF/PRTDSKINF are as follows:
Total disk space on system in 1,000,000 
  bytes  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . :   3254746
Main storage size in megabytes . . . . . :   14744

I know nothing about UDFS.

By the way that 'User libraries' includes library PCBACKUP.  That is used 
by Tivoli Storage Manager to back up all of our PC's.
                             % of          Size in

CLIDIVF      SSA36            .35        11264008.2

QMPGDATA is IBM's performance monitoring.
MGR1499099 is payroll, personnel.
CLIDIVF is our first live ERP file library. (Of which we have several.)
So, if you discount the library PCBACKUP, you can tell we take our IFS 
usage pretty seriously here.
The biggest object, by far, in ROUTINES is the file that keeps track of 
our IFS usage.  If we removed that, and the file that has DSPOBJD to an 
outfile, then ROUTINES would drop way down the list.
