Hmm. I'll create an RFE next week then. (just in case someone comes back with a magic flag we don't know about!).

We have the same problem when we started using independent fileset. I
think this should be a RFE item that IBM should provide a tool similar
to 'mmdf -F' to show the number of free/used inodes for an independent
fileset.
