Last week, our system had a run away job that filled up the disk and

the good news was the user was building a file in QTEMP. The system
came back up on its own and flushed the job

My question is: Can i separate the operating system in a separate
disk [partition from the data? If so, where can I go to find
information on the how to do it

You *could* isolate certain libraries and their contents in a separate Auxiliary Storage Pool. You would have to create a second ASP, and remove one or more drives (or mirrored pairs, or parity groups) from the system ASP, unless you're prepared to install additional drives for your new ASP. Needless to say, if your box only has one drive (or parity group, or mirrored pair), you can only have one ASP; also, you need to leave enough hard drive space in the system ASP that the system can function.

Please note that if you start working with ASPs, you may get bit.
