Sven,

You can use hammer info to display all the existing PFSs among other things. It will tell you also if they are mounted or not.

Thanks for pointing this out. I guessed that because the space was still
allocated.

It worked by re-creating the softlink. Very nice. It was the first PSF
on that device, so I did not have to test a lot.

Is there a way to list all allocated but not referenced PSF?

Thanks a lot.
