To get an overview on their ECFS usage, users can also refer to the audit files ec:ecfs_audit and/or ectmp:ecfs_audit.tmp which are created once per month and contain a complete list of a user's files in each ECFS domain.

Using ECFS in scripts

All ECFS commands specifying a single operation return the value 0 if successful, and an error code > 0 otherwise. However, as with Unix, ECFS commands may specify a number of operations, either due to multiple arguments or to wildcard expressions. In such cases, ECFS will always attempt to carry out all operations, even if some intervening operations are not successful. If all such operations for a command are successful, the return code will be 0; if some of the operations are not successful, the return code will be 1; if fatal errors are incurred, the entire command is discontinued, and the error number > 1 is returned with an explanatory message.
