Hi Marc,

Thanks for this. Just to clarify the output when it mentions allocated inodes, 
does that mean the number used or the number allocated?

I.e. If I pre-create a bunch of inodes will they appear as allocated? Or is 
that only when they are used by a file etc?

Thanks

Simon

Hmm. I'll create an RFE next week then. (just in case someone comes back with a 
magic flag we don't know about!).

We have the same problem when we started using independent fileset. I
think this should be a RFE item that IBM should provide a tool similar
to 'mmdf -F' to show the number of free/used inodes for an independent
fileset.
