Re: Purging data

[Leleux@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

system reclaim:  I have 40BG DASD @ 51% Capacity, takes about 6 hours?
(I'm not sure cause I start it on a Sunday morning, come back at night and
IPL,
never bothered to calculate time from job log)

1.   log into you QCTL terminal as QSECOFR.
2.   purge qsys/QRPLOBJ library for old objects.
3.   purge any outques to extent possible.
2.   end all mapics jobs and related subsystems.
3.   end all subsystems: ENDSBS SBS(*ALL) OPTION(*IMMED)
4.   run reclaim:   RCLSTG     direct from command line no params
     (gosh it almost feels like DOS)

What do you mean "run an system re-org about 2-4 times a year"?

Purge MO's about every quarter.
Purge PO's about every month.
COM builds its own history.
Purge IM about every 2 years.

By the way, by purge I mean sent to history.

MAPICS RE-Org; run the MAPICS report,
and select based upon deleted records & MAPICS
recommend.

Check that your system backups on OS/400 run
the system cleanup.

Run an system re-org about 2-4 times a year.

There maybe more/less times, depends upon volume
of data and how much you like your weekends!

How often do you purge data? What files do you purge?

Thanks
