On the z/os side besides varying the console online you will need to vary the device as a console

Then use the PURGE command to clean up your spool; SFPURGER as already mentioned can help keep the spool clean.

Use SPOOLPIG or SPOOLCHN tools from the z/VM downloads page and find out where the big files are. A runaway or looping guest that is spitting out messages can cause spool to fillup as the console log grows ... something to look for as well. The INDICATE commands don't show any issues that I can see. Your subject is 'hanging when dialing z/OS guests'.. Are there consoles available to dial to? Under z/VM - you need to ENABLE consoles to be available for dialing -- not sure what the equivalent is for z/OS.
