DBAM Tools: Getting Information on the Disk Space in Use

The following tools will allow on one side to check after termination of the initial installation and configuration, that everything corresponds to the requirements and on another side to check, having later on to extend the number of indexed attributes, that the available logical device space is effectively able to bear the extensions.

  1. dbamconfig

    dbamconfig (see [4]), beyond the ability to create profiles, allows also displaying how your DBAM Profiles are configured, it means how much place you reserved on the disc for the different dada types:

    dbamconfig -s -l –Pprofile_name

+It does not show how much place of these reserved disc parts is used. To see it use the following tool

  1. dbamdevinfo

dbamdevinfo gives information on how much of the reserved space is in use and the fragmentation on each logical device.

+ Here an example:

DBAM Tools: Getting Information on the Disk Space in Use
The following tools will allow on one side to check after termination of the initial installation and configuration, that everything corresponds to the requirements and on another side to check, having later on to extend the number of indexed attributes, that the available logical device space is effectively able to bear the extensions.
a.	dbamconfig
dbamconfig (see [4]), beyond the ability to create profiles, allows also displaying how your DBAM Profiles are configured, it means how much place you reserved on the disc for the different dada types:
dbamconfig -s -l –Pprofile_name
It does not show how much place of these reserved disc parts is used. To see it use the following tool
b.	dbamdevinfo
dbamdevinfo gives information on how much of the reserved space is in use and the fragmentation on each logical device.
Here an example:
