description
This file holds the name of spool documents created by the Kernel spooler (%ZIS4) for all operating systems. It does not hold the text of the documents themselves. That text is first spooled to spool space, then moved into the ^XMB global as a mail message. This file does, however, provide the mechanism for securing spool space for and during spooling. It is cross-referenced by name, spool number, user, and mail message.
