Thank you for reply. I checked up your rexx source and print out the
users with size.
then I couldn't found the SFPURGER exec file under maint or operator
user to delete these CP DUMP files.

Where is it?

My purpose is keep cp dump option on our z/VM 5.4 and remove the cp
dump file in SPOOL area without any outage.

thanks in adv.
