Thanks for the info.

I am trying to locate the file that is causing my
spool usage to be 83%????

q alloc spool
q alloc spool                                      
            EXTENT EXTENT  TOTAL  PAGES   HIGH    %
VOLID  RDEV  START    END  PAGES IN USE   PAGE USED
------ ---- ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ----
440RES 0600     79    256  32040  26769  31680  83%
                          ------ ------        ----
SUMMARY                    32040  26769         83%
USABLE                     32040  26769         83%


I thought maybe it was OPERATNS userid, but as you
just stated, Most likely not the culprit.

Any suggestions on how to track down the file that is
filling up my Spool file.


We had a power outage 3 weeks ago,  before this outage
my spool was at 28%.  Now its 83%.  

pretty sure that they are tied together but cant find
it.


I did a Transfer * rdr all to maint rdr 

then did a rdrlist, purged everything,  Useage still
83 %.

?????

Thanks,
