We have a problem where one of our SFS servers runs out of (virtual) 
memory blocks. Because of the size of the server the memory reclaim 
process takes so long that system functions are hung long before that 
completes.

We have a fair idea what is happening. Some users are accessing and SFS 
directory that is constantly changing and then something in the user 
happens (they may abend or disconnect etc.) and their block use count 
builds up tracking the changes. That may not be exactly correct in a 
technical sense but it, more or less, describes what is happening.

We know which directory is the one that these users may be connected to 
and we can see, from the virtual memory high water mark, when we might 
have a problem. All we need to automate a solution is to know which users 
are accessing a particular directory. However, this is the one piece of 
information that I cannot seem to find. 

It is probably staring me in the face but does anyone have any ideas to 
help me resolve this.
