I don't think so, I used SFPURGER and one day we had a z/VM system crash and it produced a dump. The next day I went to process the dump and it was nowhere to be found. It turns out that SFPURGER bases it's criteria on the day the spool file was opened (and I believe that's the date the spool file is dated, not on the day it is closed).

I tend a service machine that mostly runs unattended, processing work requests that are sent to its reader (email, actually, from UNIX systems.) Yesterday, someone complained that his request had not been processed. The service machine had crashed 32 days before! I can't diagnose it from the spooled console log -- our site purges spool files after two weeks. So, I get a weird idea. In PROFILE EXEC: CP DEFINE PUNCH ... /* Not 00D */ CP SPOOL ... to RSCS CONT Use NETDATA, etc. stages to create an email image addressed to me, and leave it in the CONT spooled punch. When the server crashes, the punch will be closed and the RSCS will deliver the email to me. o Will this work? o Is it abusive of system resources? o Is there a better way?
