Chuck,

1) I ran RTVDSKINF.
2) Created a query over QUSRSYS/QAEZDISK, selecting DIOBAS EQ 02.
3) Found one object
4) QSYS Q1ABRMSF02 LIB 73,728

This looks like a BRMS system object that was created 12/17/15 21:22:5.
This was when I first created ASP02, and was testing RSTLIBRM, restoring to ASP 02.

I would have thought that this BRMS system object should have been created in *SYSBAS, which would be ASP01.

Paul

Why?


Might any directories\STMF have been created in ASP02?

Were all of the Restore Library (RSTLIB) and Delete Library (DLTLIB) requests 100% successful according to their joblogs; i.e. beyond just an apparent completion? The DB2 for i is /tolerant/ of errors in Delete [Database] File (DLTF) deletion, so may leave remnants of composite pieces despite the apparent success of the Delete Library request; i.e.
errors will have been logged, LIC logs would have been generated, but the *FILE object will be gone. Similar errors that could be logged during a restore might have left partially-created objects that would be expected to be deleted, but could actually be the origin for later failures to delete.

The reclaim instruction would be able to purge some partially-created objects [that instruction runs with the Retrieve Disk Information
(RTVDSKINF) feature], and after an IPL the request to Reclaim Storage
(RCLSTG) for *ALL [again, the reclaim instruction runs with that request] would /associate/ any orphaned pieces [of data] of a file with a system-created *FILE in the QRCL library for the ASP(02). Also if the RCLSTG *ALL ran while ASP02 had data, there may have been /reclaim/ directories created but not deleted to store [non-/QSYS.LIB] IFS objects; the ASP-specific directories of either\both of '/QReclaim' and '/QOpenSys/QReclaim'

Re the Subject, How does one identify what is in ASP02: Given the objects and data in the ASP were there only via *LIB [and they were according to described scenario, not being restricted to SAVF data and\or JRNRCV data], then the DSPOBJD *ALL *LIB OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) and a query of the output file for ODASP=2 would identify any library object in that ASP and then review for the objects in that library should reveal what objects remain on that ASP. If there are no *LIB objects in that ASP, then the objects not in a library that are in ASP02 may be capable of being queried from the QCURRENT member of the QAEZDISK output file, IIRC with DIOBAS=2; those identified would be expected to be deleted or re-associated in QRCL. For objects outside of /QSYS.LIB, the objects also should be listed in that same query, but those objects must be found in their directory associated with the ASP02.
