Anyone familiar with such an "erase" feature? >> RACF profile ERASE on SCRATCH Be very careful with this feature. Namely, make sure you turn it off after you're through erasing data. And turn it on very selectively. Horror story 41A: 10+ years ago a data center manager friend told a small group at SHARE about his situation where their security guy discovered this feature one day, turned it on as the default for all data sets everywhere without checking with anybody else as to the performance implications, and performance and throughput suddenly went all to hell. It took them a week to figure out what was happening and reset the RACF parameters. It also helps to cross train people.
