× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

First of all, you've failed your security audit by creating a share over root. Several IBM i shops have succumbed to ransomware because of that. We consider that a letter of resignation here. We automatically monitor for creation of such a share and begin a search and destroy mission.

What happens if you look at:
SELECT * FROM TABLE (QSYS2.OBJECT_STATISTICS('MYLIB','FILE')) X
Or
SELECT * FROM TABLE (QSYS2.OBJECT_STATISTICS('MYLIB','ALL')) X

You might open a case with IBM to find out what "data size" is composed of.
For example:
- Does it include deleted row space or not?
- Does it include overhead like the object description, permissions, etc?

Deleted rows can be removed with RGZPFM.
For deleted row count see NUMBER_DELETED_ROWS at
