I
don't think those files are holding any space, they are open for a system dump
should one occur.
You
say you've checked RDR and PRT, have you looked to PUN? There are a number of
ways things can end up there and I always manage to overlook it when I'm
checking. That's one of the reasons I like VM:Spool...

SPOOL is at 74% used. Normally I
run a REXX/PIPE that does a Q RDR EXP and calculates the blocks used by each
user and gives me a list of the top 10.
Normally this comes close to what the Q SPOOL ALLOC shows. However, today the two are off by a
large amount: * Source

files In Use % full * * ------

Q ALLOC SPOOL:

SPOOLHOG calculated: ---

218984

* NOTE: I have two 3390-3’s dedicated to VM
SPOOL. I
modified the exec to do a Q PRT EXP and that only shows about 5000 more blocks
in use. After some looking around I
found these two spool files in OPERATNS

They do
not have records but then again they are not closed. Could these two rdr spool files be what
is hogging up my spool? If not does
anyone have a suggestion as where to look next?
