Volume Usage: How much of the volume has been taken up by the data sets that are located on it, in kilobytes. This value is calculated as the sum of the usage of all the data sets on the volume. The usage for a data set is the product of the block count and the block size. Volume Usage is an indication of how much data has been written by an application prior to compression or compaction.

Volume Write Mount Count: Number of times the volume has been mounted for output and written to.

Volume Percent Full: How much of the volume has been taken up by the data written to it. The value is calculated using the reported position on the volume where the end of the last file was written.
Note: This value is only available for those devices which provide positioning information, such as the IBM 3590 Magstar and later devices. When data is written to a volume it is most probably compressed so that the volume usage, capacity and percent full values are only an indication of the remaining, available capacity.

Volume Sequence: Sequence number of the volume in a multi-volume set.

Worldwide ID: ID value set in the volume by the manufacturer and recorded by DFSMSrmm™ when the volume is first used. DFSMSrmm ensures that the correct volume is mounted by checking that the WWID still matches the recorded value.
