Subject: Dataset space release


Can space in an allocated dataset via Rexx with the tso allocate cmd be freed 
and space reclaimed as is possible with a jcl allocated dataset with the RLSE 
option

SPACE=(CYL,(10,2),RLSE) if this just needs 6 cyls then the unused 4 will be 
freed.

Can't find a way to do same via TSO and Rexx.
