Try to create a GDS with the name of PTP.DP.TRMS.ARCH999.X3.G0308V01 << NOTE the VERSION number

You can fill this data set with the desired contents, or you can make it a null data set (1 track and empty).

This might get you around the problem until those entries roll out of the GDG base.

Create a dummy by specific number then delete?

We need to remove a GDG entry from a GDG base, but the catalog entry doesn't 
exist.  What happened was that during the creation of the GDG 
(PTP.DP.TRMS.ARCH999.X3.G0308V00) the user catalog filled up and could not 
extend.  We received IEC331I 020-000..... error message on this.   We corrected 
the catalog space issue, but the PTP.DP.TRMS.ARCH999.X3 GDG base has the 
G0308V00 GDG associated with it, but there is no catalog entry for G0308V00.  
if you do a LISTCAT ALL ENTRY(PTP.DP.TRMS.ARCH999.X3) this is what you get.

Is there anyway to delete the unwanted GDG entry from the GDG base without have 
to delete and rebuild the GDG base?
