Issue/Introduction

Jobtrac is encountering an issue where the sysout capture is filling up.  The following message is received:

TRACWARN - INDEX AREA OF CAPTURE FILE IS  nn% FULL 

 

Resolution

1. Run the 0SYSARCH or 0ARCHIVE task to purge sysouts.  The task will purge sysout based on the Ret Days/Vers value
   specified in the capture options.
    
2. If 0SYSARCH or 0ARCHIVE do run on a regular basis and the TRACWARN messages still occurs, this is an indication 
       that the capture file index needs to be enlarged.  Run the following job to enlarge the sysout capture file index:

    //$$$$$$@   EXEC PGM=GJTRVFMT,                                                  
  //  PARM='50' (NN=CYL FOR INDEX)                                              
  //STEPLIB    DD DSN=JOBTRAC.CAILIB,DISP=SHR                                              
  //SYSPRINT   DD SYSOUT=*                           
  //OLDCAP     DD DISP=(OLD,PASS),DSN=CAPTURE                 
  //NEWCAP     DD DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),UNIT=3390,                              
  //             VOL=SER=xxxxxx,SPACE=(CYL,150,,CONTIG),                            
  //             DSN=NEW.CAPTURE 

 

NOTE:  The index value should be less than 1/2 of the total cylinders in the first extent.
