As some of us has mentioned about $DLIMITS(SPOOL),LONG command and found it
interesting ...so i thought to drop an additional point here...if you get time
read JES2 Privilege resource as that's where this command is mentioned with
some of the nice way of getting spool shortage situation
One more idea if you have PDSMAN is to enable the PDS Member usage function and
that will cut user defined smf records to give you exact report who using it
for what purposeotherwise ofcourse like others pointed out writing syslog
or smf30 stepname may help.
Anthony, Do you see if it could be shared further ? looking to have similar
function performed on operlog given we have different time zones involved in
operlog and filter will help.

Thanks in advance for addressing my question ...
I am defining a new partition on separate LCSS (most of our partition are on
LCSS 1 and this new partition is on 1) and further defining a CHIPID of type
OSC now the chipid's being defined should be in mode of "SPAN" as it's
spanning across LCSS
Why can't you define the CSS id more than 1 and then have partition access to
that as well so example as below
CSS Devices in SS0Devices in SS1Devices in SS2Devices in SS3
