Re: Disk report showing *NOLIBRARY -- MIDRANGE-L

1. Information collected . . . . . . . . . : 12/16/12 04:00:04
2. I tried the same options. PRTDSKINF RPTTYPE(*LIB)

Current disk report is showing 71 % as *NOLIBRARY and rest 29 % is consumed
by different libraries which I can see in report.

I am also surprised to see this.

Ankush

Something seems whacked about that report.
1 - What is the date/time shown in "Information collected"? If outdated,
run a RTVDSKINF.
2 - What option did you run to get that line? I've tried these:
PRTDSKINF RPTTYPE(*LIB)
PRTDSKINF RPTTYPE(*SYS)
and can't get that *NOLIBRARY to appear.
3 - How can that be 71%? I've tried to figure out how they computed that.

Sorry, I missed to mention that.

1.We have recently upgraded to V7R1.
2. PRTDSKINF shows 'Objects not in a library ' as 0% but the detailed
report shows the following:

It is a production box and has no downtime except during switch which
happens every 6 months. So, no IPL, no reclaim storage till switch.

Sent by: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi,

While analysing disk report, I noticed that approx. 25% of disk space
is getting consumed by *NOLIBRARY. I tried searching about it but
couldn't find anything except this :

'*NOLIBRARY is a general name given to those objects that do not have
a library address. The size of *NOLIBRARY is determined by the number
of unassigned objects in *NOLIBRARY. *NOLIBRARY is not a real library
and cannot be used as one.'

Has anyone ever noticed this.

Thanks,
Ankush Agrawal
