zVM command to display central storage and expanded storage used
Hello experts
I would like to know if there is any CP command to display (or how to get) the currently %used central storage and %used expanded storage of a zVM system.
I normally check this through IBM Performance Toolkit panels, under option 2, and is under the following cols:
Storage utilization 19% <- for main storage utilization
CP XSTORE utilization 9% <- for xstore utilization
I need a similar output but from a CP command. I 've been searching in many docs but everything I get is how much is allocated on the system (Q STOR / Q XSTOR) but not "how much is currently being used" as in the perfkit panel.
Thanks in advance

Yeah, already checked the IND command.

But none of them displays how much central/expanded storage is available in the system, at least from what I've read so far :S!

I used to retrieve lots of storage information with
Q FRAMES
but unfortunately I really can't remember what exactly one could see here, except maybe for Installed/Configured/Usabl e and Paging Storage.

@woolmilkporc:
The following is the output of Q FRAMES, where the zVM LPAR has allocated 22G of central storage and 5G of xstor for the system:
Do the "Configured" and "Pageable" fields directly correspond to the "Real Storage Defined" and "Real Storage Available", but in frames?
Thanks in advance

This solution was the closest from all, I'll keep on looking in the docs if another workaround is found
it's quite a time ago since I was lucky enough to work with good ol' VM, but wasn't there a command
INDicate LOAD
?
If I remember well there are more options to the INDicate command, like "SPACES", "PAGING" etc.
Consult the Commands Reference!
