This is the output from the system census , OS ver 4.0f .
Operational: BMT pageCnt decreasing on AdvFS domain usr_domain
What does the above warning mean ?
Just one response .Thank you Tim Mark.
The response is :

The first thing to understand is that there is currently
no problem. This message is indicating that in the future
you MAY get "disk full" errors even though df says you
have plenty of space in that domain. It's quite possible
that you will never hit such a scenario. And even if you
do, you can use "addvol" to add a new volume to your
usr_domain so that you can continue to grow it, even though
a "partially empty" volume (the first one) won't allow
more files on it. You can continue like this for as long
as you want. You will not lose data, you will not have
crashes because of this, you will not have system hangs, etc.
If you decide you'd like to upgrade to the 5.x stream, you
will have the opportunity, at your discretion, to upgrade
your domains to the new-in-5.x on-disk formats, which are
not susceptible to the issue you're seeing.
