The statvfs() and statvfs64() APIs return more or less the same
information that DSPMFSINF/STATFS displays.

There's an example (in ILE C) of this API in the Information Center which
you can try running, just change the path from "/" to the pathname of an
object in the NFS filesystem, then run it and it should say "Network File
System (NFS)" in the f_basetype element of the returned data structure.

Let me know if you'd like an example in ILE RPG instead of C.
