I believe this should work (disclaimer - I haven't tried it)
Assuming you are JES2 then setup the DD with SPIN=(UNALLOC,CMNDONLY)
Then with automation set the time you want to spin and issue the command:
$TS ####,SPIN,DDNAME=ddname
Then have automation initiate the process to extract the spool data
Note this does not work with JES3

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: job output into dataset
Hello,
Thanks for reply. As you mentioned that you have program which can be used to
extract data from various jobs. There are couple points, I would like to make
1) Our requirement is to avoid space issue by cutting the records from
continuously running address spaces and put in dataset.
2) This process should run once in day and whatever address space we
specify in this process, should cut records from address space and keep
appending into datasets we specify.
3) For every address space, we will have separate Dataset for later to
be used or reviewed.
