Thanks Lionel, Since your name is mentioned as being involved, I hope you can answer some questions: - are SMS-managed datasets supported? How can each SMS-managed GDS be uncatalogued without being deleted (and later re-cataloged and re-associated with the GDG)? - Does the utility still work when I implement the new GDGSCRATCH(YES) and GDGPURGE(YES) options, which will definitely delete rolled-of GDSs?
