Look at 'disable events'.

Issue the 'begin ev' command to start logging to the file.  To 'spin off' a
file, make a tso in batch job which does a dsmadmc with 'end ev' as input,
then rename the file and reallocate it, then dsmadmc with 'begin ev' to
start on the new file.  See the admin ref for the full syntax of the
commands.  (I haven't tried this, but I bet this is the reason for the begin
and end commands).

Don't know!
