Hi Eric
Looks like your assumption is correct - no negative values from “mmfsadm eventsExporter mmpmon vfss”. I don’t normally view these via “mmfsadm”, I use the zimon stats. But, It’s a bug that should be fixed.
What’s the best way to get this fixed?

Bob,
I also noticed this recently. I think it may be a simple matter of a printf()-like statement in the code that handles "mmfsadm vfsstats" using an incorrect conversion specifier --- one that treats the counter as signed instead of unsigned and treats the counter as being smaller than it really is.
To help confirm that hypothesis, could you please run the following commands on the node, at the same time, so the output can be compared:
# mmfsadm vfsstats
# mmfsadm eventsExporter mmpmon vfss
I believe the code that handles "mmfsadm eventsExporter mmpmon vfss" uses the correct printf()-like conversion specifier. So, it should so good numbers where "mmfsadm vfsstats" shows negative numbers.
Regards, The Spectrum Scale (GPFS) team

I assume the counter has wrapped on some of these - would a PMR fix this? (4.2.1)
