Gadi,
Here is a random snapshot from ISMF's Management Class display for the
applicable columns:
# BACKUPS # BACKUPS RETAIN DAYS RETAIN DAYS
(DS EXISTS) (DS DELETED) ONLY BACKUP EXTRA BACKUPS
---(13)---- ----(14)---- ---(15)---- ----(16)-----
1 0 1 1
--- --- ------- -------
7 2 730 730
7 2 180 NOLIMIT
1 1 180 30
2 1 5 NOLIMIT
13 13 NOLIMIT NOLIMIT
13 13 NOLIMIT NOLIMIT
13 13 NOLIMIT NOLIMIT
13 3 900 900
3 3 180 180
13 3 900 900
13 13 900 900
13 13 900 900
--- --- ------- -------
13 13 NOLIMIT NOLIMIT
13 13 NOLIMIT NOLIMIT
13 13 NOLIMIT NOLIMIT
For non-SMS, look up the ADDVOL command in the manual for stuff enforced at the
volume level. For dataset backups, code RETPD and/or EXPDT in the JCL; or use
GDGs, etc.

Thanks
In the Management Class there are to more options I would like to set:
How many backup versions of a deleted dataset are kept.
How long the backup is kept.
Do these settings have equivalent setting for Non-SMS datasets?
