Prompt RTVDIRINF and read that. Especially the "Information file prefix".
The key word being "prefix". The default is QAEZD. The library is also important. We changed ours to some user library. So now we have QAEZD0001D QAEZD0001O QAEZD0002D QAEZD0002O QAEZD0003D QAEZD0003O ...
QAEZD0031D
QAEZD0031O

They are huge. We keep the first of the year for 5 years, the first of the month for one year, and occasionally prune the rest. However, it is very important when you prune them you renumber them sequentially.
Otherwise, if I delete QAEZD0002D and QAEZD0002O the next time it runs it will reuse that number.

Using RTVDIRINFO you can use the following:

SELECT DISTINCT COUNT(Dirinfo.Qaezd0001o.Qezdiridx) AS Tot
,(SUM(Dirinfo.Qaezd0001o.Qezalcsize) / 1024) AS Block_Size_1k
-- the above is similar to "du -H -bk"
,Dirinfo.Qaezd0001o.Qezdiridx INDEX
,Dirinfo.Qaezd0001d.Qezdirnam1 Directory_Name
FROM Dirinfo.Qaezd0001o INNER
JOIN Dirinfo.Qaezd0001d ON
Dirinfo.Qaezd0001o.Qezdiridx = Dirinfo.Qaezd0001d.Qezdiridx
GROUP BY Dirinfo.Qaezd0001o.Qezdiridx
,Dirinfo.Qaezd0001d.Qezdirnam1
ORDER BY
Block_Size_1k DESC;

*this was adapted from a post on this list.

I do know that using IBM Navigator for i, otherwise known as
http://youribmi:2001, will expand and tell you the contents of the
symbolic links also. So you may not want to use that.

PRTDIRINF will not expand the symbolic links. You have to run
RTVDIRINF first. We schedule a run on a weekly basis.
