checking old spaces

This is ids9.4 on Win2000.
I recently created a large space on new drive, dbexported all databases for
the
old spaces, and imported all to the new space.
The logs are in their own space, as is the temp space and physical log.
I would like to check the old spaces(where the databases were)
to make sure I didn't forget something before I drop the spaces.
I guess I need to use oncheck, but I'm not sure which switches or how to
interpret the results. Can someone give me a clue?
BTW , would onspaces -d let me drop a space that had databases in it?
sending to informix-list
You can use oncheck -pe.
You can however also be further reassured that Informix will not let you
drop a dbspace which is not empty.
