Re[2]: ​Sudden disk space takeover, IPL fixed it...

If you use Advanced Job Scheduler or BRMS be aware that (as of last
week) the New Navigator doesn't support there. This lack of support
makes it very difficult to manage complex Advanced Job Scheduler and
complex BRMS environments. IBM needs to get off their blankety blank
blank and complete the New Navigator.

If performance collection was enabled, you can try to investigate
performance data using Navigator for i. However, as you are running
V7R4, you will probably have to deal with the new flavor of Navigator
and because of that, I cannot give you more detail about how to to dit,
sorry.
