Correct me if I'm wrong but UNIX directories don't occupy any space on
tape (usually) but are references in the database so if you had say:

exclude /filespace/.../*

in your client options somewhere, you would have all the directories
(the exclude above only excludes files) and thus a filespace in the tsm
database, but no actual files, so q occup would show no occupancy for
that filespace.

Also, q file returns the actual size of the filesystem, while q occup
shows the amount of data stored in storagepools.
