Automatic deletion of ADS and spool logs

[Former Member]

Hello,

Space issue under Global directory for folder 300ADSP

\usr\sap\SID\SYS\global\300ADSP is getting full.

we have files like, SPOOL0000000112_00026.prn and ADS files

How can we set automatic deletion of ADS and spool logs.

SAP_REORG_SPOOL jobs is working fine.

Hello Chandrashekar,

not only spool is writing into global directory.

Also for example, batch input processing writes files/logs into this folder.

You can adjust/copy the variants of the reorg jobs, if you can't extend the disk space.

Hello Carlos,

SAP_REORG_SPOOL job is working fine.

So you mean to say i should  change the variant.?

Hello Shekar,

this depends of your inner regulations.

If it is OK for your company to remove the spool in a shorter period, than you can go to SE38 and update the variant for the SAP_REORG_SPOOL job.

I would recommend to copy the existing variant and schedule the SAP_REORG_SPOOL job with your own variant, so to key the SAP variant untouched.

Hi Carlos,

Thanks for your input.

But my doubt is ,SAP_REORG_SPOOL is the only job which controls below file system?

\usr\sap\SID\SYS\global\300ADSP

or anyother way..

Hello Shekar,

please have a look into the following link:

Required Background Jobs - Background Processing - SAP Library

It shows, what SAP ReOrg jobs are needed.

You can adjust to the most reorg jobs the variants, to shorter value.

Please also note, not all jobs a cross clients running.

Some jobs needs to be scheduled for each client.
