The amount of space required for each job can vary between 200 and
250 bytes, so each 1 MB in the job accounting file will store informa-
tion on 4,000 to 5,000 jobs.
If the selected value is greater than the current value, the file size is
increased to reserve the extra space. If the value is smaller than the
current file size, any empty job accounting files are moved. If only one
file is used and it is not empty, it cannot be shrunk.
Resetaccounting
The Resetaccounting option erases the Accounting files and recre-
ates them using the current file size. If this operation is selected when
accounting is disabled, the files are removed but not recreated, thus
saving disk space. The range of values is Yes and No. The default
value is No.
This operation is also available as the resetaccount command for the
admin user at a remote console. See the
Remote Console User’s Guide
documentation
for more information on the resetaccount command.
When job files are more than 80% full but less than 100% full, the fol-
lowing message displays on the control panel and remote console:
xxxxxxxx
FILE
xxx%
FULL
(
xxx%
is the percentage full, reported as 80%, 85%, 90%, or 95%.)
This is an appropriate time to copy these files to floppies or to transfer
them to your host computer using ftp if it is available to you. Then use
the option to reset the accounting files to empty after they are copied
to a floppy or to a host.
When the file is 100% full, the
xxx
FILE IS FULL
message displays.
