I meant to add one other point before I posted, but forgot. Someone mentioned having to do "something" to purge these APPC jobs. If you have regular "mass" purge commands scheduled by some automation (for example $OJOBQ, $PJOBQ, or $POJOBQ) in order to purge APPC output you need to add the ",PROTECTED" operand to the command(s). All APPC output is protected - as are OMVS "thingies" (lol) like BPXAS.
