Dear Uncle AS400

February 4, 2012

Dear Uncle AS400, my disk space keeps creeping higher and higher, and I don’t mean up the stairs!  Is there a simple way I can clean up my disk drives to reduce this amount of disk space being wasted by unnecessary ones and zeros?

A: Yes, the system has a very simple command that will significantly reduce the amount of disk storage used. An example of the command is:

CLRLIB LIB(*ALL)

This command may take a while to process but gives you a real bang for the buck. It will free up a great deal of storage space on your system’s hard drives.

Have a nice day!
