Alan,

In reading through the documentation for the command STRDSKRGZ, I ran
across the following line:

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

Are you sure this is what you want?  You may receive some benefit from
using the command, but I don't believe that it will free up space, merely
collect free space together into larger blocks.  My understanding is that
you will not have trouble with exclusive locks.  If you set the time
limit to *NOMAX, it will end when it thinks it is done, or you can issue
the ENDDSKRGZ command to kill it.

Regards,
Andy Nolen-Parkhouse
