Hello Conley-san,

Thank you for your suggestion.

I added VOLUME VRS and next_VRS as following:
  ADDVRS  VOLUME(VTP02*)  NEXTVRS(DAYS5)
  ADDVRS  NAME(DAYS5)  DAYS  COUNT(5)

Then I wrote a data set on volume VTP029

After Housekeeping, retention date field of VTP029 was CYCL/99999.
It seems to me that NEXTVRS is NO effect.

Then I changed VOLUME VRS as following.
  ADDVRS VOLUME(VTP02*)  COUNT(1)  NEXTVRS(DAYS5)

Housekeeping ran again, then the retention data of VTP029 became CYCL/00001.

I don't know why NEXTVRS is NO effect.
Our VRSEL option in EDGPRMxx is VRSEL(NEW).

Are there something wrong in my specification about VRS?

Your help is appreciated.
