You can clean up a file with the RGZPFM command – but not when the file is in use.

Spooled files will take up space – or at least allocate space. Delete what you don’t need and run the RCLSPLSTG command.

You should also run the RCLSTG command – but you’ll need the system in a restricted state for that. It may take a while the first go around.

See the help on these command for more information.

Last resort – shoot the developers who are making big copies of files…

Here is another thought. When records (rows) are deleted from tables the space occupied by the row typically remains reserved until the table is reorganized. That means, without reorg's files will get bigger over time, but never smaller. The DSPFD command will show the number of records and number of deleted records. Use MBRLIST option Here is what one of mine looks like Total records . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : 6432 Total deleted records . . . . . . . . . . : 29232 Total of member sizes . . . . . . . . . . : 34467840 In this case, of the 34 megabytes about 80% is deleted records! The DSPFD command can be run to an "outfile" so you have a file of this data for all the files in a library or all user libraries. Phil

The line % system ASP used on the Work with System Status screen tells you how much of your available disk space has been used.
