4.6. Displaying Pool Status

Syntax:

poolm <gopt><topt> [ -p pool ]* ( -status | -stat ) [ -expr <expr> ]

Semantics:

To display the pool status, the backend action with the name pool_status is executed. There is no general useful default definition for this action; it is rather user-defined. One very simple possible definition would be to compute the disk space used by the package:

pool_status = "du -k {POOL_PackagePath}";

The expressions used to select the pools are the same as in the -list command and described in detail in Section 4.2.
