Randy, You would close them with SET DUMP OFF. When you close them they will go away, they contain no records at present.
These are the spool files preallocated to hold a VM dump, should VM ever crash. OPERATNS is the userid from which you would read in the dumps. You can run your VM system with DUMP OFF, but if there is ever a system abend, you will not have the dump for analyzing the problem that caused the abend.
