For a few hundred dollars, you can get another 170 and transfer those
reports to that machine via the remote output queue capability.
For a little more, you can convert those reports to pdf files and store them
elsewhere.

You might also review if there are PTF libraries on PTFs that have been
installed.
Perhaps we can trade tips ... I work on an 170 which has hurting disk space.
It used to be that I could spend much more time managing reources, but for
many months I have been hammered with new projects, rush projects, critical
development, so I go longer time between sessions of spending less time
doing disk space management.
We are at about 77% used and climbing. I have a laundry list of things I
need to do to attack this, but day to day projects get in the way. Close
to 10% of our disk space is reports ... I have tried many times to get
policies changed on retention.
My main current hope is time to convert some programs that access
historical data vs. an archive collection, then get rid of the data now
being accessed from a non-archive library. Then beyond that, address some
issues with respect to redundant data.
I have been asked to clean up disk space on a hurting 170 that is at
V5R1.
Can I delete libraries QSYSV4R4M0 and QSYSV4R5M0 without any issues?
Thank you,
