So being clever I tried to do this by hand with a del command: $ DEL DU0:[1,6]SYSSCAN.TMP Delete file DU0:[1,6]SYSSCAN.TMP;1 [Y/N/G/Q]? Y DEL -- Failed to mark file for delete DU0:[1,6]SYSSCAN.TMP;1 -- No such file Delete file DU0:[1,6]SYSSCAN.TMP;2 [Y/N/G/Q]? Y DEL -- Failed to mark file for delete DU0:[1,6]SYSSCAN.TMP;2 -- File ID, sequence number check
It looks like the PIP command did work (no error at least) $ PIP DU0:[1,6]SYSSCAN.TMP;/RM $ Why did the DEL command not work? Also, how did you know it was in 1,6? The error message was ???,??? -d, learning On Wed, Jan 8, 2020 at 6:13 AM Johnny Billquist <b...@softjar.se> wrote: > > On 2020-01-08 04:24, Dave Shevett wrote: > > 04:04:00 SYSLOG -- 70. *ERROR* On scan file open > > 04:04:00 SYSLOG -- 4.
