Viewing File Information

The View File Information option allows you to view lists of files and information about individual files.

There are four different methods to view file information:

Displaying All Files

Displaying Selected Files

Displaying Undersized Files

Displaying Monitored Files

When a display is selected, the appropriate files for that option display in the File Statistics Generated screen.

NOTE

The screen headers can vary with option selected.

Add, clear, delete, resize, and search list the characteristics of the files displaying. Change the Maximum Fill Ratio or the action that is taken when that ratio is met. Use the commands below the File Statistics Generated screen to edit the list of files.

Use the TAB key to view additional information on a specific file. The dm account is used in this example.

Only the individual file displayed changes when the editable fields are modified. A global change can be made only when the Background Monitor Options are specified.

The following table defines the fields in the File Statistics Generated screen.
