Handling SMF Files
SQL/MX File Guidelines

Although you can use FUP commands to provide information about SQL/MX files,
the commands cannot manipulate or duplicate the SQL/MX files.

To display information for SQL/MX files, use the FUP FILES, FILENAMES, INFO,
LISTOPENS, and SUBVOLS commands.

The partition information for SQL/MX objects is displayed without the partition key.
The partition key information for SQL/MX objects is available from MXCI
SHOWDDL.

For compatibility with the FUP PURGE command, substitute the keyword PURGE
for DROP in the MXCI DROP utility.
Handling SMF Files
Storage Management Facility (SMF) provides location-independent naming capabilities
for Guardian files. FUP supports SMF commands by displaying information about files
on virtual disks and lets you specify physical volumes.
