Hi Marc, Thanks for this. Just to clarify the output when it mentions allocated inodes, does that mean the number used or the number allocated? I.e. If I pre-create a bunch of inodes will they appear as allocated? Or is that only when they are used by a file etc?

I think this should be a RFE item that IBM should provide a tool similar to 'mmdf -F' to show the number of free/used inodes for an independent fileset.
