RE: Spool File Stuck in WTR Status

For the archives, the resolution was to end and restart the QSPL subsystem.
It had a lock on the spool file.  Thanks for all the suggestions and ideas.

Thanks,
Bob Dobrowolski

Is it anything that would go into WTR status or just that spool file? WRKJOB
name-f-writer do F10 to check the log. Are there any messages there?

We have a local twinax attached printer with a spool file entry whose status
is stuck at WTR.  The power was cut to the printer while this spool file was
being printed.  We need to finish printing the file but all of our attempts
have failed.  I have help the file, held the OUTQ, and varied off the
printer.  Unfortunately, when I vary on the printer, restart the writer,
release the OUTQ, and release the spool file, it returns to WTR status, but
nothing prints.  This is on an 810 at V5R2.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
