RE: DSPSYSSTS ASTLVL(*BASIC) : Please stop showing disk in MB

Why do you not want a change?
At first I thought maybe you were "one of those" who uses that command to
OUTPUT(*PRINT) and then copies the spool file to disk instead of an API or
using one of the DB2 for i Services. Then I checked and, even on
ASTLVL(*BASIC) it converts it from MB to GB when you go to spool file.

DSPSYSSTS OUTPUT(*PRINT) ASTLVL(*BASIC)
System ASP . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : 23277 G

DSPSYSSTS OUTPUT(*) ASTLVL(*BASIC)
System storage (in 1,000,000 bytes) . . . . . . . . . . : +++++++

I guess it might be different if it was the amount currently used. Perhaps
then you could keep banging on refresh to see your other job sucking up
disk. But it's total space on the system. Not used or available.

I don't imagine they would back PTF that to V5R4 or some such thing so if
you have such smaller disk machines where MB might actually be greater
than 0.005% of one disk drive you would still see MB.
