Re: PRTDSKINFO

Don, take a look at system value QJOBMSGQMX.  The default is 16MB but 
I've set ours at the minimum value of 8MB to conserve disk space.

I've found it helpful in tracking storage use to use the DSPUSRPRF to an 
outfile.  It includes the amount of storage used by each profile, 
including temporary storage.  You can run this on the fly, unlike the 
RTV and PRTDSKINF commands and it will give you a snapshot of where your 
storage is going.
