Printing the Disk Space Reports

Resolving The Problem

I retrieved the disk space report using GO DISKTASK Option 1. I now need to print the collected information.

Printing the Disk Space Information Reports

After you have collected the disk space information (RTVDSKINF or GO DISKTASKS Option 1), you can print the information you have collected in a customized report format. You can select the type of information that you want your reports to contain, the detail of the information in the reports, and how you want the information sorted.

Note: Depending on the report type (all objects in particular), it may take several hours to generate a report. System performance may be degraded. Also, it is not recommended to print disk information reports when the system is being used heavily.

The Disk Space report is printed using the PRTDSKINF command or menu (GO DISKTASKS Option 2).

On the Print Disk Space Information display, select one of the following report types: library, folder, owner, specific object, or system summary information. Note that your printer output is placed in the output queue that is associated with your job. The output is stored under file name QPEZDISK.

For more specific information on printing one of the above reports, see the AS/400 System Operation V3R6 manual (SC41-4203-00), which can be accessed through the following URL:
