David,

Why not just delete the unnecessary datasets? The backups will follow. <G,

Subject: [IBM-MAIN] Deleting old HSM backups

We have been backing up millions of unnecessary datasets. I am changing HSM
to not back them up but would like a reasonably easy way to delete the
millions of backups that already exist.

Is there anything short of generating millions of lines of JCL. Is there any
way to get HSM to delete these backups?
