Thanks for your reply. That's right. As you mention above, I used the clean option in configaa datadvh. Also, this auto reply error messages was related with 'MAXIMUM_UNASSIGNED_WORKUNITS=' option which default value was 10. So, I change the default value to 100 and delete the LINK parameter under DATAMOVE directory file and delete file 'PURGES PENDING'. After update above configuration, I issue the PURGE command with noclean option. then all error message was disappeared.
However, we still have problem when I used the purge command by maint, it was not purged clearly that i think. Because, after purged the guest, it information was still exist in directory file that was appeared by 'DIRM USER NOPASS'. 1. How can I purge the guest in perfectly by purge command? 2. That was related problem 'CLEAN' or 'NOCLEAN' option? If this problem was related 'CLEAN' option in CONFIGAA DATADVH configuration file, we have to another way to remove the guest. Always, we have to shared the one storage by two z/VM. So, when we make the guest in first, we define the directory and racf on both systems. thanks in advance. best regards. >If DIRMAINT didn't respond to your initial request, then there was something >wrong with it at that point.
