I think maybe all of us have seen something like this over the years, we
control this via OPS (automation) two fold
1) pause - quiesce the workload and notify operations / systems when the
threshold reaches 80%
2) (we don't have a need) but just in case, automation will add a spool
volume we have spared on the fly.
if you can provide these processes will get better results you will save
yourself a lot of work in the long run

We have a 3 system plex, with two of those systems, DEV and PROD, in a
JES2 MAS. We had an incident recently where a development job got
into a loop and used up all spool. This in turn, caused our PROD
system to come to, basically, a screeching halt.
Management wants to investigate removing PROD from the MAS.
Beyond the obvious cons below, what else am I missing? Will a cold
start be required?
CONS:
1. No longer monitor production jobs from DEV
2. User's will need to logon to production to check on production jobs
3. Significant changes to desk procedures
4. May require changes to production jobs and/or CA7 (convert from
SYSAFF to ROUTE XEQ)
