Hi, I am trying to determine if JES2 has a similar functionality to JES3.
The JES3 inish deck allows on a SYSOUT definition the keyword TYPE=DSISO. This means that any spool dataset allocated with TYPE=DSISO is allocated its own unique track allocation table. This allows a dataset to be either printed or removed from the spool, and then that spool space returned to JES3 for other use, before the job concerned has terminated.
I can see that JES2 has a track allocation group but have not been able to determine if it has the ability to allocate a unique group for a specific sysout class.
Maybe I am barking up the wrong tree, but what I suspect, but have not yet confirmed, is that SYSLOG accumulates in the spool until JES2 is restarted. SDSF is only showing me a single dataset of about 60,000 lines, but then also shows me that SYSLOG has almost 4,000,000 lines.
