I agree. I wish there was a fast way to at least get the overview that RTVDSKINF / PRTDSKINF will give you. But there doesn't seem to be.
Trying to "guess" if it's in spool files, etc will have you wasting more time than running RTVDSKINF will take.

Subject: Is there a quick way to see what is filling up the disk?
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.
We had one of those 'three mile island' situations, where the disk went from 58% to 98% quickly.
This is always someone internal causing this, not a customer.
So we checked active jobs and did not see anything that was running that was eating up the disk.
So possibly the job finished, and now we have a needle in the haystack situation.
I know you can do a RTVDSKINF but is there a quick way to see if there is a humongous file out there somewhere?
Even the new web based navigator does not show library size when you drill into IFS/QSYS.
Yes it could be something writing to a folder also. I see you can sort the root by size in navigator, that may help.
Thanks.
