RE: utility programs?

I agree.  There are a number of products do perform this, but I've not seen
OSDirector mentioned.  I've used it and it is one of the handiest tools I've
ever used on Midrange.  Aging spool files allows for great flexibility with
the package, but it is worth a demo!  Monitoring Dasd, outqs, files needing
reorg's, actually performing the reorgs's and much more.  And the price is
really good.  OSDirector was merged with Vision Solutions, but as far as I
know, they have pretty much left the OSDirector product stand on its own.
This product even has an option to display the WRKACTJOB display from any
time in the past...How handy that has been for troubleshooting!  I feel like
a commercial here, but it really is a great product backed by excellent
technical staff.

There are already a handful out there.

Why reinvent the wheel?
