Cleanup IEFXLOG files

This sequential file is allocated for each CA Gen encyclopedia user as userid.IEFXLOG. It contains a log of upload and download processes with their CPU times and elapsed times, and can be used to record similar statistics for all encyclopedia activities if the statistics option is turned on using %TIUDEBUG R command.

Business Value

The userid.IEFXLOG files increase in size because new log records are appended to them. Archive and delete these files at regular intervals to reduce the space consumption and to improve performance. CA Gen would reallocate them automatically if they are missing. Archiving and deleting the userid.IEFXLOG files improves disk usage, reduces space costs, and improves I/O throughput.
