Last week, we noticed that our Disk Space %, consistently at about 58-59 %, had

I looked all over for anything which might look like the culprit, bought found 
nothing recent.  I did delete some old 2002 files which brought it down to 
about 60.5 %, where it stayed until last night's IPL.  Today we are at a low of 
  56.4 - which is great!  But, we IPL every 2 weeks, and I can't imagine what 
might have been there before that IPL, but GONE today after it???

Hi Don

There's a free DASD & temp storage monitor on my site -
http://www.dbg400.net/extras.html#dasdmon - which wakes up every 10
minutes (configurable) compares the disk space to the previous check,
and can warn if the rise is over a specified threshold, and if the
overall disk space exceeds a preset %. It also checks for jobs using
too much temporary storage and puts them on hold if they exceed a
preset limit.

There's also a simple RPGLE routine that reports the temporary storage
of all jobs over a preset limt, so you can tell (more) easily if
something is amiss. CHKTMPSTG is at
