I'm not sure if this is the same problem, but we've been seeing these
orphaned recovery files for some time - at least back to z/OS 1.5 (we're
1.7 now).

Some of the files seem to be completely orphaned while others appear to
be hanging around in ML2 status until the owner opens the wrong PDS
member and has to wait for the recovery file to be recalled - giving
them ample to call us and complain.  

However, if we let SMS delete the files instead of migrating them the
user gets a message saying ISPF was unable to recover their previous
edit session.  This also generates a phone call.

Sorry I don't have an answer for you, but if this is the same problem
you're having, I'm not so sure it was introduced in z/OS 1.8.

Thanks,
Carey Morris

Subject: Fix for orphan ISPF edit recovery files yet?

Did anybody ever get a fix for the orphan ISPF edit recovery files?  I
got a 
boatload of them on z/OS V1R8.  I'm totally non-SMS, so please don't
tell me 
how I can use SMS to mask this ISPF bug, just tell me if there's an APR
and a 
PTF.  I was not able to find anything on IBMLink.

Regards,
Tom Conley
