John,

a LIMIT of 10 on an account means that you can keep 10 Sectors. That is about
... em, the formula is

1 Megabyte is 4096 Sectors
1 Gigabyte is 4,194,304 Sectors

so that 10 Sectors is nothing ...

If Limit is "unlimited" like PIM you're allowed to fill in every sector on the
volume set.

HP's recommendation is to fill a volume set / disk up to 75% due to performance.

You may also check the fragmentation, using DISCFREE 1.

We use an homewritten program DF5 to check the usage per Volume Set. But there
are other free programs available to check this.

Best regards, Andreas Schmidt, CSC, Germany

Subject:  [HP3000-L] Account Disk Space Problem


Hello again,

Here is my listacct result from two accounts PIM and SHR.
Can anyone tell me what it means when the DISC LIMIT is set
to 10 on SHR? Is this something wrong? I keep getting error
messages when I try to copy a large file inside SHR, but it works
well in PIM.

I understand from one of the posting that DISC LIMIT when set
to ZERO means is unlimited. What how come DISC SPACE is also
set to ZERO? What does that mean - can complete access to all
of VOLUME's space?

BTW, how does SECTORS relate to BYTES? Say, 10 SECTORS means
how many BYTES .. or KBYTES or MBYTES?

I am not very familiar with this notation to define disk or file
sizes. Can someone shed some light for me. :)

Thanks in advance,
John
