IDCAMS DELETE should automatically do an HSM delete. It does here (z/OS 1.8). As for the IEFBR14, well somebody will just need to change the job to use IDCAMS. I don't know of any "automated" way to do this. Well, I might be able to write a REXX exec which, when given the job, would look for this special case and write an IDCAMS step to do it to replace the IEFBR14 step.. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
