*usrspc obj

[iseriesXA]

We work on V5R2.... INFOR XA.
There are objects of type *USRSPC and attrib FLDL created in the library QRPLOBJ.
These objects are continuously created in the library and takes a toll on the system storage.
Recently did an IPL that cleaned up the QRPLOBJ lib , but the objects are still created at an alarming rate.
When the USRSPC is displayed it contains the information of the transactions that have taken place in the INFOR XA R.7.0.

IBM's website provides a way to clean up the USRSPC objects from QRPLOBJ ...thanks to Scott K , but how can we identify which IBM job is creating these objects and is it recommended to stop the job?

Re: *usrspc obj

it's not IBM but rather the software being used that creates the user space. apparently they are creating the user space using *REPLACE vs. deleting the user space prior to recreating them. any operation on an object using *REPLACE moves the original object to QRPLOBJ then creates a new object. it's recommended that you change the application/program creating the user spaces and not tangle with trying to alter or change IBM objects. if you can't change the program then write a cleanup program to delete the "old" user spaces in QRPLOBJ...
