  • Files deleted from Netserver mapped drive didn't reduce storage

    I'm cleaning up IFS files in prep for a belated V7R3 upgrade. I deleted around 500 GB of old email archives via a mapped drive from my PC but my percentage used in WKRSYSSTS remained the same. Does anyone know why the disk space didn't go down and how
    I get back that space?



    thanx

    IBM has recommended an IPL so we'll see if that helps.
