One of my favorite things to look at for this situation is 1) Put the warning message lower for $HASP050 2) Look at your settings for ESTPAGE, ESTLINE, ESTBYTE 3) Put some automation in place (emails or alerts) a) Automation of the $P command to purge data based on AGE 4) Use SDSF to see if Purging is being done 5) In SDSF turn off any filtering, Use the ST command and SORT on QUEUE. Then find MASCOMM (MASC works) and scroll back one page. If there are jobs that have HOLD just above MASCOMM then you have users issuing a HOLD against running jobs. They never purge until they are released
Just a few thoughts. You should not need exits. JES2 has lots of controlling functions. You can have JES2 abend a job producing too much output with a S722. Be careful you do not hurt production.

We are currently tuning the JESPARMS and setting up exits to avoid such issues in future . But i was wondering if there was anything else we could have done when the issue really happened . Unfortunately , we didnt have spare spool volumes to start and i felt that JES2 was not accepting any commands at that point of time . Any thoughts ??
