I'd do a WRKOBJ or DSPOBJD on the save files to get the last access
date.  For anything more than, say, 6 months old, save to tape or CD as
mentioned by others and then delete.

We maintain a generic 'archive' tape for just this sort of thing.
Actually two tapes that contain the same thing and 1 is kept off-site.
Whenever data is added to the tape, do a fresh DSPTAP TAPxx
DATA(*SAVRST) to keep a current list of the tape's contents.  Keep the
archive tape for as long as you deem necessary for regulatory compliance
and data integrity.  To be safe, we're keeping them 'forever'.

Subject: SAVF definition


HI all.
 
Can anyone please give me a definition (using words of one syllable or
less) of a Save File?
 
I have been giving the task of cleaning up our production machine and
there are SAVF objects created and last used late 1997 (yeah 1997!!) but
the user doesn't want them removed because they "may still be used by
the module". (It's Friday, in California where a wild fire is burning
homes close to the user's home - so I suppose I should give her the
benefit of the doubt.)
 
TIA.
