I have been answering some of Angels questions off list. They are running JES2 V1.8.
Here is what I have provided so far Angel, I prefer tape to dasd, less chance for data loss due to space issues. In the JES2 V1.8 Commands book there is a specification for the VOLUME that can be added to the $TOFF commands. Volume=volume The volume serial (5-6 characters) of a volume containing a spool data set. If Volume is also specified in the WS= list, only those jobs that reside on one or more of the specified volume(s) can be selected for dumping. You may specify up to 4 volumes. Multiple entries must be separated by commas and the list must be enclosed in parentheses. If volume is not a criterion for job selection, specify a null parameter of (Volume=()) and do not specify Volume in the WS= list. You must specify the empty parentheses (). You also need to make sure that the jobs on that volume are not being held. Some jobs can have a hold on sysout which remains on spool until that hold portion is also gone. It maybe that the reason the spool volume is not drained is because of output that has not completely purged. In SDSF one of the displays I like to do is in the ST panel for all jobs. Then sort on QUE column. Then look for $MASCOM just scroll back from there. You may find some jobs that have not completed output processing and are in OUTPUT que. So you volume may not be draining for those jobs that have OUTPUT in the QUE column PREFIX=* DEST=(ALL) OWNER=* SORT=Queue/A SYSNAME= NP JOBNAME JobID Owner Prty Queue C Pos DB2DWLMX STC06960 DB2DWLMX 15 EXECUTION DC0PWLMX STC06991 DC0PWLMX 15 EXECUTION DC0PWLMC STC07037 DC0PWLMC 15 EXECUTION BPXAS STC07047 OMVSKERN 15 EXECUTION DC0PWLMC STC07091 DC0PWLMC 15 EXECUTION DC0PWLMC STC07154 DC0PWLMC 15 EXECUTION TKW9486C JOB01950 KW94869 1 OUTPUT C TKW9486B JOB02847 KW94869 1 OUTPUT C TMA14 JOB05088 MA14359 1 OUTPUT Y T571A1F JOB00644 XX571A1 1 OUTPUT D TSAM4 JOB09581 SK15491 1 OUTPUT 8 <--- NOTICE THE OUTPUT in the QUEUE column This needs to be released to complete processing TDBH8Q STC06788 TDBH8Q 1 OUTPUT TSJM003 JOB01201 SM14440 1 OUTPUT D SK15491X JOB05186 ENDAUTH 1 OUTPUT K TBECKYAA JOB06031 RB09772 1 OUTPUT 8 SASRPT1A JOB04390 CB16159 1 OUTPUT Z BMCMPA01 JOB00636 CB16159 1 OUTPUT Z TROS STC04932 TROS 1 OUTPUT BRETTRMF JOB05418 BS41590 1 OUTPUT Z BRETTRMF JOB05428 BS41590 1 OUTPUT Z TSAM4 JOB05810 SK15491 1 OUTPUT 8 The other command that is good is $DJOBQ,SPL=(V=xxxxxx) $D JQ,SPOOL=(V=DCSPL1) $HASP890 JOB(DSP2010) 243 $HASP890 JOB(DSP2010) STATUS=(AWAITING HARDCOPY),CLASS=A, $HASP890 PRIORITY=1,SYSAFF=(ANY),HOLD=(NONE), $HASP890 SPOOL=(VOLUMES=(DCSPL1),TGS=1, $HASP890 PERCENT=0.0008) $HASP890 JOB(DSP3110) 244 $HASP890 JOB(DSP3110) STATUS=(AWAITING HARDCOPY),CLASS=A, $HASP890 PRIORITY=1,SYSAFF=(ANY),HOLD=(NONE), $HASP890 SPOOL=(VOLUMES=(DCSPL1,2,3,4,5,6,7), <--- Notice the multiple SPOOL volumes used $HASP890 TGS=32,PERCENT=0.0274) $HASP890 JOB(DSP3115) 245 $HASP890 JOB(DSP3115) STATUS=(AWAITING HARDCOPY),CLASS=A, $HASP890 PRIORITY=1,SYSAFF=(ANY),HOLD=(NONE), $HASP890 SPOOL=(VOLUMES=(DCSPL1,5),TGS=2, $HASP890 PERCENT=0.0017) This will show you what jobs are on that specific volume and if they are on other volumes as well. Hope this helps.
