MOVSPLF       MOVE SPOOLED FILES                         TAASPLJ

The Move  Spooled Files  command moves  all or  selected spooled  files
from one output queue to another.

A typical command to move all spooled files would be:

     MOVSPLF      FROMOUTQ(QUEUE1)   TOOUTQ(QUEUE2)

A typical command to move all spooled files in a RDY status would be:

     MOVSPLF      FROMOUTQ(QUEUE1)   TOOUTQ(QUEUE2)   STS(RDY)

The "move" function is performed by use of the CHGSPLFA command.

One  or  more  selection  criteria  may  be  specified.    If  multiple
criteria  are  specified,  the  spooled  file  must  meet  all  of  the
criteria before it will be moved.

Only spooled files  with a status  of RDY, CLO, HLD  or SAV are  moved.
Spooled files  which have a status  of OPN or WTR  are always bypassed.

The two normal escape errors you may wish to monitor for are:

     CPF9898    No spooled files exist in the FROMOUTQ
     TAA9891    No spooled files exist which match the selection
                 criteria
