We have a 1.4 million page (yes, million) spool file, and only want to see the last two pages. You cannot enter a 5 and it appears that restarting with the second to last page does not work either.

I'm on 7.2 and can look at a *SCS spooled file that's 288k pages.
What message do you get with option 5? Is it a *AFPDS spooled file?
What does option 8 say?

Does anyone have any ideas how to print or display just the last two pages?

I'm old, so my first instinct is to copy the spooled file to a PF and
then copy it back.

crtpf qtemp/splf rcdlen(134) size(*nomax)

CPYSPLF FILE(QSYSPRT) TOFILE(QTEMP/SPLF) JOB(111111/BUCK/BUCKJOB)
SPLNBR(1) CTLCHAR(*FCFC)

dsppfm splf /* Look here for the last page's record number */

OVRPRTF FILE(LASTTWO) TOFILE(QSYSPRT) PAGESIZE(66 132) LPI(6) CPI(10)
CTLCHAR(*FCFC)

cpyf qtemp/splf lasttwo fromrcd(16722329)

That got me the last two pages.

dltovr lasttwo

dltf qtemp/splf

Will clean up.
