Howdy all!
Once upon a time at one of the large companies here in NY, I recall the scheduling department having the ability to print out what appeared to be a CSV file of all the jobs on a given Flame’s framestore. Basically a physical copy of the “Volume Statistics” window we can access in the Flame UI.
Is this a tool that’s standard with Flame, or does it sound like some in-office proprietary stuff? Any recommendations on how to access this functionality, if possible) would be much appreciated!
Thanks!!
Hey Brandon…Congrats on the 1st post!
Long time stalker, first time poster 
LOL. @jarak08 do you know if this is possible?
I’m pretty sure they were just running a vstat. Did it look like this?
If so you can use:
cd /opt/Autodesk/io/bin
./vstat -v stonefs(then some # here, probably 7)
Same data, but formatted in a more user friendly way. Looks straight out of Excel or something.
honestly, looked almost identical to what you see in “Volume Statistics”

What you outlined above is definitely helpful and gets me in the right direction! So thank you. Just curious to keep digging and see if getting that data as a CSV or other spreadsheet format is possible.
Thanks!!
I think if you use the -l flag (for Libraries mode) you will see the same detailed output you would in the flame UI.
[root@vxfhost ~]$ /opt/Autodesk/io/bin/vstat -v stonefs7 -l

You can prob. just strip the output and format as a csv or whatever format you want.
HTH.
@jarak08 @john-geehreng
Thanks very much for your contributions! What you’ve proposed will definitely work for my purposes, and helped me deduce that the CSV files I had previously worked with likely had a some intervention/formatting done by some third party code.
Thank you!!
