For more information about the utility, you can request help by entering the following command:
$ @SYS$UPDATE:LIBDECOMP HELP
You can list the sizes and format (reduced or expanded) of the libraries by using the following

For complete information about expanding and reducing system library files and using
LIBDECOMP.COM, see the HP OpenVMS System Manager's Manual, Volume 2: Tuning, Monitoring,
and Complex Systems.
Table 7-2 (page 154) lists the libraries that ship on OpenVMS Version 8.4 and shows the
approximate sizes of the libraries in both data-reduced (compressed) and expanded format. Note
that library sizes differ for Alpha and Integrity server systems.
NOTE: File sizes are subject to change. In addition, layered products and user applications
might add entries to the HELPLIB.HLB and STARLET.OLB libraries. The sizes listed in Table 7-1
do not reflect such entries. For the most accurate information, run the Library Decompression
utility on your own system and review the output from the list function.
The LIBDECOMP.COM utility lists the following libraries as “Library not present”:
• [SYSLIB]SYSBLDMLB.MLB
• [SYSLIB]DECCRTL.OLB
• [SYSLIB]SYSBLDLIB.OLB
These libraries are not used with OpenVMS Alpha or OpenVMS Integrity servers; they are used
with OpenVMS VAX only. These libraries are omitted from Table 7-2.
