Jack, Secondary Space Mgmt runs at 23:00 every night. I see no errors in the HSM sysouts.
Is it possible that HSM won't touch a dataset that hasn't been opened? For my test, I merely allocated some datasets then left them sit. I just opened one today and changed it to see if that would make any difference.

That's where they should get deleted if in fact they have not been 'accessed' in 5 days. Also look in the HSM SYSOUTs for the SECONDARY SPACE MANAGEMENT (or process the FSRs) and see if give you and error for the DSNs that should be scratched. I don't think that HSM will backup a DSN that hasn't been opened, or at least given the basics by a Data Class.
