Re: IBM TS7720 Secure Data Erase
Hi Tom, I guess you need: FC 4017 Cluster Cleanup can be run. FC 4017 is required if the removed cluster is going to be reused. A Cluster Cleanup removes the previous data from cache and returns the cluster to a usable state, similar to a new TS7700 from manufacturing, keeping the existing feature codes in place. Both feature codes are one-time use features. In terms of cache, you can only delete lvols with Purge from the z/OS side, scratch on RMM (or on other tape mgmt), scratch on TCDB and if the library on ISMF has eject=PURGE than execute the ejects cmds.

Re: IBM TS7720 Secure Data Erase
Check with your vendor or CE. Most vendors have the ability for the CE to do a secure erase that meets most requirements. I had to excess a virtual tape system that did not support the erase. We wound up pulling the drives and send them to be shredded.

IBM TS7720 Secure Data Erase
One of my clients is retiring an old TS7720 and wants to guarantee the residual data is completely erased before it leaves the premises. Can someone out there tell me if the "Secure Data Erase" feature works with internal hard drives as the physical media, as well as with take cartridges?
