AS400 Mid Range/disk utilization

Question
how do i limit the disk storage for each objects or libraries in the AS400. is there a way i can monitor which object is overflowing?

thank you.

Answer
The easiest way to monitor disk usage is by limiting the number of records in each physical file.  Using the CRTPF or CHGPF commands, you can set an initial number of records (the default is 10,000), and a number of allowable increments (the default is 3).  Each time the increment is reached, the system operator will receive a message asking whether the next increment should be allowed.
