Hi,

I'm having trouble with mminfo output on Networker 7.1 and summing the 
volume of backups for a daily report. The typical scenario is that 
operations staff run a batch file with mminfo commands in it that dumps to 
a text file. This is imported into excel and converyed into columns. The 
operation staff then sums the various totalsize columns and copies the 
result to a report that is mailed out.

Nomally the results from totalsize (and sumsize) are in differing units, B, 
KB, MB, GB per line. I know you can use totalsize(13) and then divide by 
1,000,000,000 to force output in bytes then convert to GB but is there a 
way to get mminfo to natively output all figures in GB without resort to 
scripting?

Regards

Simon
