RE: Deleting PTF *SAVF to clear disk space

Jerry,

To gain some space back.

1) Delete old, large, unneeded *JRNRCV
DSPOBJD OBJ(*ALL/*ALL) OBJTYPE(*JRNRCV) to see the size.

WRKOBJ OBJ(*ALL/*ALL) OBJTYPE(*JRNRCV) to do the delete.

2) Delete large spoolfiles
STRSQL
SELECT OUTQ, SPOOLNAME, size, pages, job_name, created FROM
QSYS2.OUTPUT_QUEUE_ENTRIES ORDER BY SIZE DESC FETCH FIRST 100 ROWS ONLY

3) Clear tmp IFS directory
QSH CMD('clrtmp')

This machine is OUT OF DISK SPACE including any work space so we are
wondering if doing the apply *PERM needs lots of work space which we
don't have.

Applying as *PERM is my preference.

This place is completely not monitored so they have no idea about what
is going on system wise.

We are the mop up crew.

Why not apply them as perm? I would have thought you would have found a
bad PTF by now. I guess if your concern is that, since you're running
V4R3 and something untoward happens IBM will just laugh at you that might
be valid. But do a full system save and THEN flag them to apply
permanently and then IPL. Do not flag them until the save or if you have
to scratch reload you'll also restore the flag to apply permanent at IPL.
