Check pool usage in units of "fileset"

My client company is a customer who uses "fileset" in a wide variety.
The customer is using "ess3200" and "ess5000" divided into "system pool" and "data1 pool".
The customer has transferred the data from "system pool" in "fileset" to "data1 pool".
However, we have confirmed that some of the data in this "fileset" is in the "system pool."
There is also "ill-placed" data.

The customer requests it.
I want to know the capacity of "system pool", "data1 pool", and "ill-placed" in units of "fileset".

EX)
fset01 : system pool [10%], data1 pool [89%], ill-placed [1%]

"GPFS" doesn't seem to have a function to inquire pool capacity in units of "fileset" yet.

Can you create a feature that will satisfy the functionality of the customer's request?

    We don't currently have this in the roadmap for the foreseeable future. there is a poential approach you could consider today, To generate a policy file and parse the output to get the results you are looking for. A good starting point would be to look at the following as examples of generating a policy file and parsing output to get started:

    samples/ilm/mmpolicy-filesetdf.sample
