Anyway to undelete a spool file?
Accidentally cleared an output queue.


Restore the spool files from a backup that was taken using the SAVLIB SPLFDTA(*ALL) parameter [or other supported save interface, since v5r4], with "*ALL" suggesting to include spooled files associated with the saved *OUTQ object(s).

As Tommy alluded, although some data [as records\rows & some in the member associated space, but none in a documented format] may still be available in members of the spool database files in the QSPL#### library after the CLROUTQ, any use of the reclaim spool storage RCLSPLSTG command and the effect of the QRCLSPLSTG system value could eliminate some of the database members that held the data. But more importantly, any new spool files that were created since any of those spool files were deleted might have had their data replace any of the data from any old\deleted spool file. So really, given the likelihood of both actual and worthwhile retrieval of the data into spool files via an unsupported method using the implementation objects in the QSPL library to reconstruct spool files is so remote, best to refer to the original response.
