Re: DASD USAGE UTILITY

["Dan Bale" <dbale@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

"oludare",

DSPOBJD *ALL/*ALL *ALL will not show everything on the AS/400, like stuff in the
IFS.  It sounds like you need to use the RTVDSKINF command and look at the
resulting output in file QUSRSYS/QAEZDISK.  This is a long-running program,
treat it like the DSPOBJD *ALL/*ALL *ALL and submit it to batch at night.  DBU
the file the next morning and you'll see the first 20 or so records with special
values in the "Object" column.  For example, "object" *TDSKSPC shows you the
total DASD on your system.  "Object" *UNUSED shows the available space on your
DASD.  Check it out.
