FILE

The FILE report, which is shown in Figure 1, lists every file system that was active since the last reset by default. If you use the ALL option, it lists all file systems. The file systems are listed in the report with the most active file systems listed first. Table 1 describes the contents of the report.

Table 1. FILE report fields
Field name Contents
Aggr # The aggregate ID that can be seen in the zfsadm lsfs -long command.
Flg Indicates the aggregate status, as follows:
A
Attached
G
Growing
L
Locally owned
M
Mounted
O
Offline (disabled)
Q
Quiesced
S
Sysplex-aware (if the aggregate is sysplex-aware for read/write)
This command only reports on locally mounted (attached) aggregates. You can use the operator ROUTE command to issue this command to all systems in your sysplex (for example, ROUTE *ALL,F ZFS,QUERY,FILE,ALL). Note that the zFS owning system can flag an aggregate as growing (G) while the other (zFS client) systems can flag it as quiesced (Q). That flagging occurs because an aggregate that is growing is quiesced on all other systems.
Operations Indicates the count of z/OS® UNIX vnode calls to that particular file system; it is not an I/O rate. You can use the RMF™ DASD reports, the LFS Aggregate I/O report, and the FILE report to balance your file systems among disks to provide a more even I/O spread.
