Re: How to Release all spool jobs -- MIDRANGE-L

In my experience, OpsNav is good for mass deletes, espec. since I can sort on the various columns. It is horrible for mass changes, however, as a separate dialog appears for each spooled file, not a single dialog with the attributes that are common to all seclections. The latter is the behavior of Windows Explorer. This is where WRKSPLF shines, with the 2 option and the command line.

What, besides delete, are the other commands that can be done efficiently over multiple spooled files?

Operations Navigator is great for performing massive quantities of one
command on spool files.

One nifty example is to massively delete a number of job logs created by a
profile.  Sort the spool files by name, then click on the first,
shift-click on the last and then delete.
