Reclaiming space after unloading journal records

The journal housekeeping batch program may delete journal records, but it does not reduce the space used by the journal data set. To reclaim the space used by the deleted records, you need to reorganize the journal data set after running the housekeeping program. For example:

  1. Stop the CICSĀ® region that runs the CICS Configuration Manager server.
  2. Use the IDCAMS REPRO command to reorganize the journal KSDS. Example JCL for this is provided in the sample library SCCVSAMP member CCVX0003.
  3. Start the CICS region.
