ABSTRACT:
Techniques for more accurately analyzing the additional capacity of very large hierarchical databases are described. More particularly, techniques and tools for looking at physical sequential data files, such as the OSAM files used in IMS databases, to determine how much file space an IMS OSAM dataset is using are described. These tools may be effectively utilized to generate appropriate reports if the database is running out of space, thereby allowing a user to take proactive steps.
