Avner, If you have no RDS you do not need to run EDGJSRDS, except when 
you are using special keyword EXPDT values in JCL and want those to be 
continued to be used under rmm.  The dates are extracted in EDGJ5LDR and 
merged with any RDS entries in EDGJSRDS.  
If you need to handled the special keyword dates, point EDGJSRDS to a 
DUMMY RDS.

You say 'all data sets must be cataloged or their expdt gt today.'  That can 
be handled in rmm with VRS:
RMM AS DSNAME('**') WHILECATALOG LOCATION(CURRENT) NEXTVRS(UEX)
RMM AS NAME(UEX) UNTILEXPIRED LOCATION(CURRENT)
The first VRS retains data sets as long as cataloged. once uncataloged or if 
never cataloged, the nextvrs retains them until the JCL expiration date is 
reached. If no expdt was specified, the default retention is used to calculate 
expdt.

we proceed without this step ? does RMM require a set of names ? how can 
we implement our policy in RMM ?
