I also see that /usr/lpp/mmfs/samples/util/tsinode will list these flags:

[root at scale-dev-01 util]# ./tsinode /mnt/gpfs01/|grep 55559
              55559   631878862      0      0 1048576000  104857600
-rw-r--r--         2 1610965529.234470000 1610965531.035007326
1612952829.394919000      0 blk=1048576 modsnap=1 extperms=0x2,xa
replmeta *illReplicated
unbalanced* dev=3824,150 archive compressed crtime 1610965529.234470000

That program can probably easily be modified to only list these files..
