Hope someone can help me, I'm new to SPOOL OFFLOAD processing and have 
been experimenting a little for my education.

I tried offloading some spool using defined transmitters and I set DISP=KEEP 
so as not to disrupt anything while I am experimenting.  

I am offloading to DASD and wanted to try different scenarios of selective 
offloads.  

What I discovered is that even with DISP=KEEP, I cannot re-offload the same 
spool output once it has been offloaded.  I even delete/reallocated the DASD 
offload dataset, but I still cannot reselect the same output.  

Here is the question, Is there a way to reset the indicator that JES2 knows 
about that indicates the spool dataset was offloaded?  I want to be able to 
repeat my experiments but it appears that once a dataset is offloaded, I can’t 
get it to offload again.  

I looked at the ARCHIVE=ONE|ALL option.  But it appears that it is useless in 
my situation where I want to offload to the same transmitter.  This option just 
restricts re-offload, either to the same device or to all devices.  

I guess I could define another offload device that has not been restricted, but 
I'm not sure I can define another OFFLOAD dynamically.  

Help!
