What do these commands show:
WRKOBJPDM LIB(QGPL) OBJ(QS*) OBJTYPE(*FILE) OBJATR(*SAVF)
WRKOBJPDM LIB(QGPL) OBJ(QM*) OBJTYPE(*FILE) OBJATR(*SAVF)
That should be the PTF save files that were downloaded.

Subject: Easy PTF retrieval ate up the DASD
I was watching last week's thread on Easiest PTF Upgrade Retrieval with interest as I know I'm behind on PTFs.
So I submitted a SNDPTFORD PTFID((*CUMPKG)) and let it run. Within a couple of hours, my system hit 95% storage utilization, up from around 88%. I made the decision to cancel the job instead of letting the storage go critical.
I followed that up by doing a DLTPTF PTF(*ALL) LICPGM(*ALL), and running the Clean Up Fixes in Navigator. The system was IPL'd over the weekend, but is still sitting at 94% utilization instead of the 88% before I started this endeavor.
Any suggestions for clearing up this space?
For the record, we are on a 520 at 7.1 with just 175GB DASD. I have been working on the boss for 2 years to get him to agree to an upgrade, but have not yet been successful. Maybe I should just let the PTFs fill the disk and crash the system...
Thanks
