RE: RTVDSKINF vs RTVDIRINF - what are the differences , is ther a better option?

Rob,

So it's basically a length issue.
RTVDSKINF field length for path is 63, DIFLPT, object name is 12.
RTVDIRINF field length for path is 1024, QEZDIRNAM1, object name is 512, QEZOBJNAM

Why the big difference in runtimes?

Paul

Look at
SELECT * FROM syscolumns WHERE TABLE_NAME ='QAEZDISK'
You see any variable length character columns in there which can handle directory names like '/Domino/ApplicationServer/data/WesternHemisphere/UnitedStates/Michigan/MacombCounty'?
You see any variable length character columns in there which can handle names like 'AReviewofthebookLifeAndTimesOfJudgeRoyBean.doc'?

Rob,

If you take a closer look, RTVDSKINF loads complete Folder/Doc
information, name, path, dates, size, etc.
For IFS STMF etc,, RTVDSKINF loads everything (date, size, owner) except
name and path.
Could this be a bug?
Did anyone ever report this?
Is there a reason name and path are NOT loaded?

Can you get this information from RTVDIRINF?
Licensed Internal Code
Temporary space

Can you get these breakdowns from RTVDIRINF?
Licensed Internal Code:
LIC and tables
Dump space
Error logs
Trace tables
VLIC logs
VLIC control blocks

As you noted, RTVDSKINF does NOT have any detail about individual stream
file entries. So if you had directories like /DominoServers /OurFtpSite
/home and more you couldn't summarize it by those directories.
