DASD-Plus is a utility that allows iSeries/System i administrators to schedule more than 27 automated cleanup jobs. These jobs can be run either in a "what-if" scenario to check out what will be cleaned up if the process is actually run or in a "commit" mode to clean up history logs, alerts, message queues, spool files, etc. Administrators can run surveys to monitor changes in libraries, objects, directories, and entries as well as monitor for spikes in disk utilization.
