Are those datasets cataloged with the same names (volser in cat entry = volser where they are residing) or are they uncataloged duplicates? What message(s) are you receiving when trying to delete these datasets? There are good reasons why you can't delete datasets while an ENQ is active. Rather, try find out who is the owner including your TSO session procs, stop these ASIDs and then do your deletion. This is the safest way. Yes, there is a way to bypass deletion+renaming while ENQ is there, but to do that may risk the safety of your datasets and your datasets in LLA's iron grip... If you just want to delete the uncataloged duplicates, you can just vary the volser offline and INIT it after double check all VTOC entries. Not a trick which I would recommend of course, but ... Of course, this type of questions have been answered in IBM-MAIN in the past. Just search the archives.
