File Systems view

The File Systems view displays a list of file systems and associated files on a local machine that a specific database is using.
From the Database details page, click File Systems in the Operational Views section. The File Systems view appears and displays the following general file system and detailed storage area information:
*Monitor — The name of a file system monitor. Only those file systems that have a defined monitor display a specific monitor name. File systems that do not have a defined file system monitor currently set up display the entry - define - under the Monitor heading. See Creatingfile resource monitors for more information.
*Capacity — The byte capacity for each file system.
*Free — The number of bytes that are currently free.
*Used — The number of bytes currently used.
*Utilization — The number of bytes currently used, expressed as a percent of the capacity. Percent amounts display one decimal place of precision.
*DB Size — The size of all extent files on that file system in bytes.
*DB% — The DB size as a percent of the capacity.
*Extent — The filename and path of the database's storage area extents.
*Database — The name of the database.
*Area # — The database storage area number.
*Size — The size in bytes.
*% of file system — The size as a percentage of the file system capacity.
*Reads and Writes — The number of block read/writes that have occurred since the database was started.
The database extent data on the File Systems view originates primarily from the _FileList VST. Data appearing in the Size column originates in the _AreaExtent system VST.
Note: If you access the File System view from the OpenEdge Management Resources page instead of from the Database Details page, OpenEdge Management displays identical data. The only exception is that when you access the File System view from the OpenEdge Management Resources page, OpenEdge Management shows all databases for a system.
