Querying File Space Occupancy

To display information on where a client's file spaces are stored and how much space they occupy, first complete the following fields and then click Finish, or click Cancel to end the task.

Note:  File space names and file names that are in a different code page or locale than the server do not display correctly.  The data itself is backed up and can be restored properly, but the file space or file name may display with a combination of invalid characters or blank spaces.

Node Name

Enter the name of the node that owns the file spaces you want to locate.

Filespace Name

Enter the name of the file space to query. You can use wildcard characters in the name. The default is *, which includes all file spaces. File space names are case-sensitive. For Unicode clients, see the Filespace Name Type field help information.

Storage Pools

Select the storage pool in which files from the specified file space are stored.

Device Class

Select the device class to which the file spaces are assigned.

Object Type

Select the object type to be queried in the file space. The parameter is optional.

Any Specifies that all types of files are queried: backup versions of files, archived copies of files, and files migrated from one or more client nodes. The default is Any.
Backup Specifies that backup files are queried.
Archive Specifies that archive files are queried.
Spacemanaged Specifies that space-managed files (files migrated from one or more client nodes) are queried.

Filespace Name Type

Select how you want the server to interpret the file space names that you enter in the Filespace Name field. Use this parameter when the server has clients with support for Unicode. A backup-archive client with support for Unicode is currently available only for Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows Server 2003 operating systems.

You can select a file space name type only when the file space name field contains a partly or fully qualified file space name. Possible values are:

SERVER The server uses the server code page to interpret the file space names.
UNICODE The server converts the file space names from the server code page to the UTF-8 code page. The success of the conversion depends on the actual characters in the names and the server code page. Conversion can fail if the string includes characters that are not available in the server code page, or if the server has a problem accessing system conversion routines.
FSID The server interprets the file space names as their file space IDs (FSIDs).

Filespace Code Page Type

Select a code page type for the server to use as criteria for selecting the file spaces to include in the query. You can select a code page type only when you leave the file space name field empty.

Possible values are:

BOTH Select all file spaces regardless of whether the file spaces are Unicode. 
UNICODE Select only file spaces that are Unicode.
NONUNICODE Select only file spaces that are not Unicode.
