Al,

Yes, you should be able to use the 'RGZPFM' (Re-Organize Physical File Member) to accomplish what you are needing ... just ensure that the PF is not locked by any job or user at the time.

Regards,

subject: Re: [BPCS-L] Data Purging - File Downsizing

I just purged some ancient records from several files & I forget some final 
cleanup how done.

I have these files which have had stuff older than 2 years removed, so the actual data there is a fraction of the records volume that was there before, but they still eating the same disk space.
What I want is to lower the actual disk space consumption, to that which agrees 
with # records in the file, without messing with the logicals or growth 
definitions.  Is there a standard OS/400 command that will do a reorg in place 
to accomplish that for me?  Or do I have to manually mess with change file, 
fingers crossed my arithmetic is correct, kill all logicals, copy file, 
regenerate all logicals.

We are BPCS 405 CD on AS/400 model 170 with V5R1.
