RE: CHGSPLFA question

if you plan to do this based on aging it would be better to write a
program that runs through the source outq to select and move the spooled
files. is the OUTQ() keyword defaulted to *DEV or to the target outq? i
wrote a program for doing something similar to this using APIs. much more
configurable...


Thanks,

I should clarify.....

I am setting up a job in our robot scheduler to move the splf's from one
queue to another. It won't let me do a *select in the Chgslfa because it
says it needs a device attached.

CHGSPLFA affects *only* the spooled file attributes. it neither cares nor
requires anything else. an outq is an outq. outqs do not require a
printer, etc whatsoever. why would you think it would not work? this
would have been easily tested. use CHGSPLFA to move the spooled file from
one outq to another! i guess common sense really isn't that common
anymore...

Hi All,

I am trying to copy all spool files from an outq(that doesn't have a
device attached) to another outq(that doesn't have a device attached).
Basically I am aging out the first queue and keeping a save on the second.

Is there anyway to make this command work without devices attached or do I
have to create a device for the first queue?

Thanks,

Andrea
