Controlling the Maximum Number of Files
FILESET Command is used. A fileset that has a only a few inodes (enforced by using a
small MAXINODES value) can be recovered faster than a fileset that has a large
number of inodes.
To change the approximate maximum number of inodes permissible in a fileset that is
not started:
1. Use the SCF INFO FILESET Command with the DETAIL option to determine the
configured value for the MAXINODES attribute.
2. Use the SCF ALTER FILESET Command MAXINODES option to change that
value.
The change takes affect as soon as the fileset is started.
To change the approximate maximum number of inodes permissible in a fileset that is
already started:
1. Use the STATUS FILESET Command with the DETAIL option to determine the
number of inodes in use. If the value in use is not the value you want used, then:
a. Use the SCF INFO FILESET Command to determine the configured value for
the MAXINODES attribute.
b. If the configured value is not the value you want used, change it using the SCF
ALTER FILESET Command MAXINODES option.
2. Use the SCF CONTROL FILESET Command with the SYNC option to apply the
change to the started fileset.
