The STAT-FILE file contains the following data items from which to produce a File Statistics Report:
0 |
ID (REEL :FILE) |
Number of the reel in a multireel filesave, followed by the number of the file. The file number is used with the N option when restoring files. |
1 |
NAME |
Account name, dictionary file name, and data file name, separated by * (i.e., SYSPROG*BP*BP). When dictionaries and data files have the same name, the data file is listed as filename*filename. File names that contain * will cause the File Statistics Report to misname files. |
2 |
FILE LEVEL # |
A number from 0-3: |
0 |
System level. |
|
1 |
Master dictionary level. |
|
2 |
File dictionary level. |
|
3 |
Data file level. |
|
3 |
BASE |
Base frame ID of the file. |
4 |
MODULO |
Number of groups. |
5 |
SEPARATION |
Number of frames initially allocated to a group. Always a 1. |
6 |
# ITEMS |
How many records in the file just saved. |
7 |
# BYTES |
How much data saved. |
8 |
LARGEST ITEM SIZE |
|
9 |
SMALLEST ITEM SIZE |
|
10 |
# ITEMS IN FULLEST GROUP |
|
11 |
# ITEMS IN EMPTIEST GROUP |
|
12 |
# FRAMES USED |
Total number of frames used by the file, including full and partially full frames, allocated frames, secondary file space and object code frames. |
13-20 REPRESENT A LOGICAL SET |
||
13 |
# GROUPS 25% FULL |
|
14 |
# GROUPS 50% FULL |
|
15 |
# GROUPS 75% FULL |
|
16 |
# GROUPS 100% FULL |
|
17 |
# GROUPS 125% FULL |
|
18 |
# GROUPS 150% FULL |
|
19 |
# GROUPS 200% FULL |
|
20 |
# GROUPS >200% FULL |
|
Total should be equal to the modulo. Items 17-20 (particularly 20) should indicate as few groups as possible. |
||
21 |
# GFEs |
Critical information. On a system level, should be checked daily. If other than 0, must be addressed immediately. |
22 |
# OBJECT CODE FRAMES |
Total number of frames of object code used by programs and select-lists. |
23 |
NOT USED IN mvBase |
|
24 |
NOT USED IN mvBase |
|
25 |
# INDIRECT ITEMS |
|
26 |
TOTAL SIZE OF ALL INDIRECT ITEMS |
|
27 |
RAW BYTES (DIRECT) |
Total of attribute 26 and attribute 27 equal the number in attribute 7. |
28 |
REEL # |
Printing out an entire STAT-FILE file could mean several thousand pages and would be essentially inefficient. A more practical use of this file is to focus on getting information about specific system management problems, producing smaller and more useful reports.
