Attention Buck: we need an FAQ on this one too!  It would help if an IBM'er
would provide a conclusive answer...

You'll get this message when you have a large number of objects on your
system; I used to get it frequently on my P02 (R.I.P.).  I made it go away
by deleting objects in QRPLOBJ and in my archive libraries or by IPL'ing.  I
had > 10% free space on the system so it wasn't about storage space per se.

My conclusion is that there's a directory somewhere in the system tracking
objects; the (finite) size of the directory seems to be a function of the
amount of DASD.  When you run for a long period without IPL'ing, internal
objects left by OS/400 must be clogging the directory.  When the directory
gets over a certain size, this message starts appearing.  When you have
15,468 jobs still in the system, it's likely you're adding overhead to
various system functions.

Some disk cleanup, job cleanup, and/or and IPL is indicated...

HTH

Can someone explain this message, how critical is it, what causes it, and
how can I avoid it in the future?
Thanks.
Dave

 Message . . . . :   Storage directory threshold reached.
 Cause . . . . . :   The storage directory is nearing capacity.  This is a
   potentially serious system condition.  This message will be repeated
until
   an IPL has been performed.
 Recovery  . . . :   The amount of storage used on the system must be
reduced.
   To reduce the amount of storaged used, do the following:
     -- Delete objects from the system that are not needed.
     -- Save objects that are not needed online by specifying STG(*FREE) on
the
   Save Object (SAVOBJ) command.
