Allan, Thanks for correcting my understanding. The dsn is not a gdg. I checked again the SMF tapes but nothing. Again, if the dsn was deleted by a TSO user wouldn't it show up in the SMF records?

The NOLIMIT allows the user to override the default by specifying label=retpd Or label=expdt. Retention limit specifies the maximum value allowed for the override. Read the online help or the fine manual *carefully*. Is this a GDG? If so, check the "rolled off GDS action" column. I would be more like to suspect a "fat finger syndrome" on the part of the end-user. Your SMF analysis should go back to the last known date the file was available. DAF is your friend. CBT file 094, IIRC.
