Al ... It sounds great...

The Start Disk Reorganization (STRDSKRGZ) command allows the user to       
start the disk reorganization function for one or more auxiliary

storage pools (ASPs).  The user specifies a time limit that the

function is to run for each ASP being reorganized.  A message will

be sent to the system history (QHST) log when the reorganization

function is started for each ASP.

                                                                       
Unused space will be collected together within the ASP.  This allows       
future large disk allocations to be done more efficiently.

                                                                       
Restriction:    You must have *ALLOBJ special authority to use this

command.

                                                                           
Time limit (TIMLMT)

 

Specifies the amount of time, in minutes, that the reorganization

function is allowed to run.  When the time limit is reached the

function ends.  The time limit specified is for each ASP being

reorganized.  For example, if ASP(*ALL) is specified and the machine     
has four ASP's configured and TIMLMT(60) is specified, four               
reorganization functions are started and each can run 60 minutes.          
If reorganization of any ASP has not completed after 60 minutes, it       
will be forced to end.  This allows you to do disk reorganization           
incrementally.                                                         
                                                                          
The possible values are:

                                                                          
*NOMAX 
                                                                       
There is no time limit for the reorganization function.  For a     
large ASP that has many small unused disk areas, the                 
reorganization function can take a long time to complete.  If       
you start the reorganization function with *NOMAX and you want     
to force the function to end, you can use the End Disk             
Reorganization (ENDDSKRGZ) command.                                   
                                                                          
time-limit 
 

Specify the time limit that the reorganization function is             
allowed to run.  Valid values range from 1 to 9999 minutes.           
                                                                           
Auxiliary storage pool ID (ASP)

                                                                           
Specifies for which auxiliary storage pools the disk reorganization       
function is started.                                                     
                                                                          
The possible values are:

                                                                        
*ALL                                                                     
Disk reorganization is started for all auxiliary storage pools.           
                                                                           
auxiliary-storage-pool-number                                           
Specify the ASP for which disk reorganization is to be started.          
Up to sixteen ASP numbers may be specified.
