Re: Total Number of Live Volumes in System...?

[Sandy Heft <sandy.heft@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Stephen
This is easily found by keying MIFS from the main menu in the character
based system.
M > MANAGEMENT information
    I > INFORMATION about the system
        F > FILE information
            S > SYSTEM status

The info listed at the top of the screen like this shows you how many
records you have of each type under 'current #:
                            INNOVATIVE SYSTEM STATUS
 RECORD TYPE          LAST REC#    CURRENT# MAX ALLOWED    #DELETED
 BIBLIOGRAPHIC        15292204      493894      750000       35324
 ORDER                10258097       24572       27000        1236
 CHECKIN              10177875       16051       26000        1736
 AUTHORITY            1281278x      279370      500000        1908
 ITEM                 18963006      636671     1000000      259629
 PATRON               10292639       21158       23000        8105
 COURSE               10020111         795        2000        1216

If you want the numbers broken down by location, etc., you can run
statistics on the whole database by going into Statistics and choosing
R > To enter a RANGE of Record Numbers
        Enter starting record # : .o
Change the .o to .i and hit return return.  The system will put in the first
and last item numbers.

Then choose 
O > Statistical report based on all OTHER record data elements

and you will get a quick and easy report of the fixed field data in you item
records.  You can do similar reports with the other record types.

Let me know if you still have questions.
