There is not an IXFP user. You can run any from any guest that has access to the SIB routines and linked to the ECAM device.
Here is an EXEC I use to get a report. You will need R/W links to your ECAM device. /* */ Trace off Queue 'msg * Report Started' Queue 'sibadmin' Queue 'listcfg subsys(subsys(*) level(1))' Queue 'end' Queue 'msg * Report Complete' Exit Mark D Pace Senior Systems Engineer Mainline Information Systems 1700 Summit Lake Drive Tallahassee, FL. 32317 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Office: 850.219.5184 Fax: 850.219.5050 http://www.mainline.com Ashley Chaloner <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ick.ac.uk> cc: Sent by: Linux Subject: Re: RAMAC Virtual Array Full !! on 390 Port <[EMAIL PROTECTED] ARIST.EDU> 12/20/2002 09:03 AM Please respond to Linux on 390 Port On Fri, 20 Dec 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > With IXFP you have the ability to delete a functional device (VM Volume) > which will totally remove any backend storage.

Listing how much each functional device is being used would be great, because before I started working here, a lot of snapdisk was done, so I'd rather get rid of real data than snapshots that aren't taking up much space. But how do I do that ? There's no IXPF user, but I did find loads of SIB* EXEC files on one of MAINTSTK's disks, is that something to do with it? Is there no Rexx script that simply issues RVA commands to colect all free space now? or a way to remove all backend storage associated with DASD labelled as FREE? (Or, if there exists a Linux utility to do this, that would be even better.) The problem is, as with normal HD defragmenting, it's difficult to defragment with no free space, and our usage now reads 99.402%. The RVA documentation reccomends 75% usage... so we'd like to force some deletions as it's unlikely the RVA will want to defragment or tidy itself up. Thanks again for the help. Ashley Chaloner.
