Hey, seen your reply from the BI group.  This is the
nuts of bolts of the ADT side over here on this list.

Try executing the commands from
SYS$STARTUP:VMS$CONFIG-050_JOBCTL.COM to see what
pagefile quota you get.

$page_size = f$getsyi("page_size") / 512
$total_page = f$getsyi("pagefile_page") * page_size
$min_jobctl_pagelets = 40960
$if total_page .lt. 2*min_jobctl_pagelets
$then pagefile = min_jobctl_pagelets
$else pagefile = total_page/2

Now compare it with the actual quota for JOB_CONTROL
and QUEUE_MANAGER using

$ pgflquota=F$GETJPI(pid,"PGFLQUOTA")

(where "pid") is the PID of JOB_CONTROL and then
QUEUE_MANAGER.

Track the page file consumption over time by running a
periodic job - say every 5 minutes which finds the
PAGFILCNT. Does it increase over time?

You may have to raise your pagefile quota.  Corner one
of your VMS guys and pick his brain.
