Is there any way to delete all the datasets of a particular HLQ (These should not have been accessed in recent 30 days)?

Ex:- I want to delete all the datasets of type 'SIVA.**' if last access is before 01-Jul-2004.

Guys do please suggest

Shiva,


Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU                                 
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                                     
//PSEUDO   DD DUMMY                                         
//SYSIN    DD *                                             
  DUMP                   /* COMMAND DUMP             */ -   
   DS(INCL(SIVA.**)      /* INCLUDE ALL DSN WITH HLQ */ -   
   BY((REFDT,LE,*,-30))  /* SELECT IF REFDT LE 30    */ -   
   OUTDD(PSEUDO)         /* OUT DD NAME              */ -   
   DELETE                /* DELETE ALL THE DATASETS  */     
/*                                                         


Note: The refdt is to be given in julian format. "yy" is year, "ddd" is day of year,"n" is a + - relative digit. (*-1) represents 1 day before the job run date.

Hope this helps...

Cheers

Hi Kolusu,
The following utility is working fine for Datasets on DASD.
This is not deleting the datasets which either reside on Tape or which are migrated. It just deletes the datasets on DASD.
Can you please help what to be done to delete on both DASD and TAPE/Migrated?.

Thanks
Siva.

Hi,
I have a requirement to delete the Datasets which are not referenced in recent 90 days. I am using the following JCL to delete the datasets.

Code:

//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU                                 
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*                                     
//PSEUDO   DD DUMMY                                         
//SYSIN    DD *                                             
  DUMP                   /* COMMAND DUMP             */ -   
   DS(INCL(SIVA.**)      /* INCLUDE ALL DSN WITH HLQ */ -   
   BY((REFDT,LE,*,-90))  /* SELECT IF REFDT LE 30    */ -   
   OUTDD(PSEUDO)         /* OUT DD NAME              */ -   
   DELETE                /* DELETE ALL THE DATASETS  */     
/*         


This code is not deleting the datasets, if they are migrated.
Our shop is customized, such that if a dataset is not referenced for 10 days, Migrate the dataset to MIGRAT1 and if not referenced in past 50 days Migrate the dataset to MIGRAT2.
So, Whatever the datasets(Not referenced in 90 days), I am trying to delete are migrated to MIGRAT2. Is there any way to delete the datasets in MIGRAT2(If not referenced in last 90 Days)?

PS:- If I want to know the last reference date of a Dataset which is migrated to MIGRAT2, I need to recall it. In that process, Its referenced date is changed to Todays Date. So, I can't recall the datasets and delete.

Please Can any one help me in this regard.

Thanks
Siva
