Spool data base file

[Mark Burns <burnsmt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Recently we've noticed several files in QSPL library beginning with
Q04079Nnnn (where n is 1-999). After doing some research I've worked out
that these are database files which contain an SCS data stream before
translation into either ASCII or EBCDIC when being printed (ie. every
spool file points back to one of these data base files).

Does anyone know if these files constitute the auxiliary storage that is
cleaned up by doing a RCLSPLSTG? (implying that the system reuses them
as needed) or are  they supposed to disappear whenever the spool file
itself is deleted?
