If you use any of the ROBOT family of products, they have a utility called AGEOUTQ. You provide a list of OUTQs and the number of times a file will remain on the queue. Every time you AGE the OUTQ the last characters of the USER DATA field receive a number and is incremented. When it reaches the number of times you specified, that spooled file goes away.

We have several 'agings' set up-- some for 2 week, some for 2 months.



Most important thing is to train your users that an output queue is NOT a file cabinet!!

Used to be installing a new version of the OS would (sometimes) clear all output queues. Telling users this before an upgrade will let you detect the file cabineters by their screams of anguish! (:

Subject: Expired SPLFs

Is there a way to get a list of the spool files that are currently
expired? Or the ones that will expire shortly?

We are on 7.2 and will soon implement some form of old SPLF removal.

Thanks.
