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.
