Re: Spoolfile Cleanup on powerdown/restart

["Al Barsa" <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

IPL isn't going to help.  You can lower the system QRCLSPLSTG, but this
won't buy you much, and will cost you runtime performance.  How are you
measuring QSPL at 9GB?  Make sure that automatic cleanup is enabled. (GO
CLEANUP with *ALLOBJ authority)

Background : 75Gigs of DASD
             85% Used
             QSPL is nearly 9 gigs

My boss wants to incorporate a nightly powerdown/restart
pwrdwnsys option(*immed) restart(*yes) into the nightly
backup to clear up used spool file space or cleanup qspl in general.

1) is there such a process to do this already built into the IPL

He says the answer is yes...but only every so many IPL's
Does it actually "flip the switch" and run this process.

I told him that sounds strange...either it should do it
Every time or not.

So which one of is more crazy?

P.S. I don't want to hear about RGPFM or any other command
That will save space...we know about those.
I just was curious about the spool file cleanup process
During a restart.

Thanks,

Jim
