It has been discussed in the past, but the way to track stuff is to
enable HSM and then hook into the DSMAPI. That way you can see all the
file creates and deletes "live".

I can't however find a reference to it now. I have a feeling it was in
the IBM GPFS forum however.

It would however require you to get your hands dirty writing code.
