OUTFENCE
Examples
To defer all output spoolfiles except those waiting to be printed by LDEV 6, which is
usually configured as the system line printer, set the global outfence to 14 and the outfence
of LDEV 6 to 7, as shown below:
OUTFENCE 14
OUTFENCE 7;LDEV=6
To display the new global outputpriority and the outputpriority of logical device 6, execute the
LISTSPF or SHOWOUT command, as in the example below. Note that the summary statistics
at the bottom of the listing immediately reflects the new outfence. Once any currently
ACTIVE spoolfile is finished, no files directed toward a device other than LDEV 6 can
become ACTIVE.
