Wayne, we did the IPL last night and the disk % dropped all the way

Yet, yesterday it jumped all the way up to 68% and the temporary space

was at nearly 18%.  Is there any specific area we could look into 
which could cause that unusual TEMP space jump?

Hi Don

The system QUSLJOB API can return the temporary storage associated with
an active job. There's a simple program on my site that uses it to list
all jobs using over a preset level:

There is also a (slightly) more complex routine that runs in the
background taking snapshots of overall disk & temporary storage use.
It can put jobs on hold if they exceed a preset limit, and send out
warnings if disk use goes up too quick over a period of time:
