Mark, Thanks for the info. I'll try inching it up slowly first from 5 to 7 and see if there is any observable impact.

I guess the downside could be JES2 "taking over your system" (depending on how many CPs you have) for some period of time when you do these mass purges of output. At least if JES2 runs in SYSSTC as it should. I suspect if this happens at all in any of our environments, no one notices since it is done at 0 dark 30. YMMV...
