I found I had to run 'audit licenses' to update the occupancy values.  I
have no idea why this would be the case.

A correction/addition to this.  I just went through the apar and it says
it affects ALL 6.x servers.......and while the apar page says it should
be fixed in 6.1.5.10, Bill indicates this is not totally
true................note the new "REPAIR OCCUPANCY" tool  (

Bill,

Thanks for the update/info.  I guess I will wait for 6.1.5.200, which is
scheduled for 1Q2012.

Yes, we did switch to the "Unified Recovery" license model but with
enough room for growth/shrinkage so I don't know if this will matter
that much (roughly 15TB difference on this, my only 6.1 server).  I will
pass this on to let know folks that Occupancy numbers on this server are
"artificially inflated" and therefore inaccurate (high by about 15% if
my "gozinta" is correct).

Zoltan,

occupancy numbers were made incorrect by various bugs in early 6.1 code,
see apar ic73005.  There is a special utility to fix the numbers,
"repair occupancy".
It was supposed to be in 6.1.5.10 but isn't, you need an e-fix for
6.1.5.102.

Of course, you can ignore the errors unless you are using the unified
recovery license.

Subject: Occupancy discrepency between 6.1.5.10 and 6.2.3.0 server

Doing some reorganization, we recently moved (server-to-server export)
some nodes from a 6.1.5.10 server to a 6.2.3.0 server.  Now, the
occupancy numbers on the 6.2 (71mb) server are lower than the 6.1.5
(83mb) server, eventhough the file/object counts are identical (static
file system)?

All of the apars I found (so far) that address occupancy information are
at (supposedly) patch levels below these levels.

Anyone else see this kind of discrepancy?
