Re: Delete all but latest spool file member

As an alternative, how about expiring spool files?

I don't know exactly what you may be after, but you can do either OVRPRTF
EXPDATE(thedate) or OVRPRTF EXPDATE(*DAYS) DAYS(1). Then use a job
scheduler job to run once a day and run the DLTEXPSPLF command. It gets
rid of all expired spool files.

I use the DAYS() example a lot. Some reports 1 day, some 3 days, some 30
days, etc. There are different logs or registers that I create, never
intending to print, but may want to look at if an issue arises.

This is a longshot but...

Does anyone know of a utility (preferably free) that will delete all but
the
latest version of each spool file member in an OutQ?

As in - all spool file members with the same spool ID, forms ID and user
data are considered the same, and the utility needs to delete all but the
latest version of each group in the OutQ.

Any possibilities?
