For the first one a 'D' states that it isn't cataloged. For the other two a 'D' states that the datasets don't exist. I've tries a delete NVR and a normal delete. Nothing works. Can anyone make some suggestions as how to get these out of the system. An
ISPF 3.4 is showing these up.

It is not at all clear to me what you have.  Clearly, these are cataloged in
a BCS.  Either in the master catalog or in a user catalog with an
appropriate alias.  Otherwise, they wouldn't show up under a DSLIST.  I
think you need to answer these questions.

1. What happens if you do a LISTCAT ALL on these?  Is the first a cluster
with associations to the other two?

2. is volume OPSPR2 online?

3. If it is online, see if the last two are in the volume.

4. Run a pair if DIAGNOSEs between the VVDS on that volume and the BCS that
these are cataloged in.

This information will help to determine what to do next.

Just a shot in the dark. From your 3.4 list, try
entering a line command of DEL (not D - they generate
different commands) against the cluster (VSAM) name only.
