you can get it in bytes all the time by using (20) but not for volumes
(written) apparently


> mminfo -q volume=000001 -r "volume(7),written(20)"
 volume             written
000001               138 GB


> mminfo -q ssid=769091765 -r "volume(7),totalsize(20)"
 volume               total
000001         115939361612
000002         115939361612

Subject: [Networker] mminfo and sizes


Hi,

 

I'd like to find out how much data is written to a piece of media (could
be disk, could be tape).  So, I use mmifo.  Unfortunately, it changes
the units it reports the size in based on the size.  For example:

 

mminfo -q " volume=000999" -r "volume,written"

 volume        written

000999           14 GB

 

mminfo -q "volume=000039" -r "volume,written"

 volume        written

000039         6499 MB

 

 

Is there a way to force mminfo to be consistent?

 

Thanks.

Teresa
