5 DISCFREE
Use the DISCFREE utility to display information about disk volume fragmentation and the allocation of
transient and permanent space on the disk. DISCFREE also shows total volume space capacity, as well as disk
allocation for single volumes or for the whole system.
Transient space refers to temporary, fluctuating volume space. Permanent space is volume space set aside for
job/session temporary files, permanent disk files, and operating system directories and other data.
DISCFREE displays disk allocation data only for mounted MPE/iX volumes, and not for unmounted or
scratched volumes. (If necessary, use the DSTAT command to identify currently mounted volumes.)
