We have an application that has recently been sunset, but we need to keep some of the most recent data files that were created by that application. Over the years that application has generated hundreds, if not thousands of GDG files, some on DASD, some on Tape.
What we would like to do is to uncatalog and delete all but the x Most recent generations of these GDG base entries, freeing up a lot of disk and tape space. >From a long time ago, I remember a utility of some sort which would use control cards to uncatalog all generations of the GDG, modify the GDG Base LIMIT to the number that you wanted to keep, , and then Re-catalog only the x Most Recent Generation(s) of those files. I thought I might find something on the CBT Tape, but without knowing the name of that utility, I have come up empty so far. Does anyone know of a utility like the one I am describing, and if so, do you know where I can get a copy of it ?
