Urrrrrggghhhh. I feel your pain. As a previous Storage Admin I had to handle those pain. >I cannot issue the HRECALL because the dsn doesn't exist. The same reason I >cannot issue the HRECOVER because there is no backup. Ok. Let us go back. Did you ever issued the HLIST command as kindly suggested by Lizette? If so, then I retract my question. Sorry for being bothersome. Please show us HOW that dataset was deleted (Post JCL + messages confirming that action). Perhaps it was just uncataloged / renamed or such? (SMF audit trails could help you there) Or use ISMF to scan your volsers to see if there is a [uncataloged] copy lurking somewhere... Perhaps you can scan your tape management system to see if there is a copy sitting somewhere? Or do you have any Peer-to-Peer Remote Copy [1] or similar technology? Perhaps there is a version sitting on your remote site? Groete / Greetings Elardus Engelbrecht [1] - I know that any actions are immediately duplicated to remote, but perhaps the line was hopefully down or something? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
