I was just trying to "guess" what he was talking about. I believe he was talking about the definitions of these items and not actual implementation of what you can see. Until he responds, we won't know what the impetus for the question was.
Perderabo,
Thanks for the explanation though. I enjoy your depth of knowledge on many topics on which you wax poetic. I wish I had the depth of understanding you have on many areas regarding the inner workings and behind-the-scenes machinations, history of why things are the way the are! I guess you have been doing this type of work for quite a while?
Thanks again.

Hi All,
I can't create a FS from a SAN VG with size of 160G on JFS (NOT JFS2, requirement with application) with large file enabled.
It only let me create 64G in maximum size. The actual size of SAN VG is also 160G, the FS can be smaller than 160G because of the inode allocation.

xchklog
xchklog(8) JFS utility - extract fsck.jfs log xchklog(8)
NAME
xchklog - extract a log from the JFS fsck workspace into a file
SYNOPSIS
xchklog [ -f output.file ] [ -p ] [ -V ] device
DESCRIPTION
xchklog extracts the contents of either the most recent or immediately prior JFS fsck service log from the specified device, and writes the
output into a specified or default file. (The default file name is <pwd>fscklog.new. If the -p option is used, the default file name is
<pwd>fscklog.old.)
The contents of the output file can be formatted into text by using the JFS utility xchkdmp.
device is the special file name corresponding to the actual device from which the fsck log will be extracted (e.g. /dev/hdb1 ).
OPTIONS
-f output.file
Specify the output file name, overriding the default file name.
output.file must be 127 characters or less in length.
output.file will be created in the present working directory unless it is fully qualified.
-p Extract the prior log (as opposed to the most recent log).
-V Print version information and exit (regardless of any other chosen options).
EXAMPLES
Extract the most recent log on /dev/hda5 into <pwd>fscklog.new:
xchklog /dev/hda5
Extract the most recent log on /dev/hdb3 into /temp/l9651107.log:
xchklog -f /temp/l9651107.log /dev/hdb3
Extract the prior log on /dev/hdb4 into <pwd>fscklog.old:
xchklog -p /dev/hdb4
