Sorry my bad. I was thinking (not clearly) that Q AUDITOCC gives complete
ADSM storage (which in my case include the COPYPOOL), so you have to be
careful. Paul is correct in that you would have to Q FILESPACE and look
at % utilize to get compression stats. I really was just trying to warn
you of the COPYPOOL amount that is reflected in the AUDITOCC numbers. Note
below and see that if I used AUDITOCC it reflects 2X the amount of data
actually stored on the client hard drive.
doh... Ben
