Reporting Smf Files; Exiting Dsap; Stopping Dsap; Dsap Options - HP BACKCOPY Reference Manual

Each detail-selection-option limits the scope of the DETAIL report. If you specify
the DETAIL report option and one or more detail-selection-options, only the files
that meet the requirements of at least one detail-selection-option are analyzed
and included in the DETAIL report.

Reporting SMF Files

DSAP creates reports about the contents of disk volumes. SMF provides system-managed storage
capabilities for NonStop systems (including location-independent naming). DSAP interacts with
SMF as follows:
The file names that DSAP displays are dependent on the type of volume specified (virtual or
physical). If a virtual volume is specified (DSAP $L), the virtual file names are displayed, with
some restrictions (report options that manage free space are ignored on virtual volumes).
The behavior of DSAP on virtual volumes is the same behavior that results when you specify
the USER option. All options are supported, with these exceptions:
◦
The FREESPACE option is ignored on a virtual volume. Any other report that includes
FREESPACE (SPACE and ANALYSIS) will produce all reports except FREESPACE.
◦
The SHORT option displays the name of the virtual volume and an error message indicating
that this is a virtual volume.
◦
The SUMMARY report does not produce the Space Allocation Consistency Analysis or
the Media Failure Analysis on a virtual volume. A message is printed indicating that this
is a virtual volume instead of a message indicating the size of the disk.
◦
All percentages that compare space use with the size of the disk are displayed as 0.0%,
which affects the SUMMARY, FREESPACE, and FILESPACE reports.
◦
Wild-card characters in DSAP expand to include both virtual and physical volumes. DSAP
* displays all volumes on the system.
If a physical volume is specified (DSAP $P), the physical file names are displayed. DSAP $P
shows all files on the disk including the "hidden" SMF files in the ZYT and ZYS subvolumes.
DSAP supports the BYSUBVOL, BYUSER, DETAIL, USER, SEPARATE, WORKFILE, and SUMMARY
options when it is invoked on a virtual disk volume.

Exiting DSAP

Exit DSAP by pressing the Break key. DSAP continues to run in the background until it is finished.
If your terminal is the output device, you can reenter DSAP by typing PAUSE at the TACL prompt.

Stopping DSAP

To stop DSAP, press the Break key and type STOP at the TACL prompt. (Without parameters, STOP
applies to the process that the current TACL most recently started.)

DSAP Options

This subsection describes each option in DSAP.
