Hi,

I tried to delete the GDG base & generations if exists by IDCAMS by the following jcl..But I am getting return code 12 . Could some one tell me should I add any other parameters.
If it is not possible by idcams, Can it be done by FILE AID..?
//*******************************************************
//PSTEP04 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//*******************************************************
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DELETE -
G1KKIXT.ONESHOT.AUDIT.TRAILS GDG PURGE
/*
//SYSDUMP DD SYSOUT=*
//*

Following is the error code..

** VSAM CATALOG RETURN CODE IS 48 - REASON CODE IS IGG0CLFO-28
** ENTRY G1NX62T.ONESHOT.AUDIT.TRAILS NOT DELETED

Thanks
Anand

Anand_r,

Change your sysin cards to the following and see if it works.

Hi ,
Looks like you don't have authorisation to delete that dataset.Otherwise FORCE works fine to delete GDG and all it's versions.

Kolsu,

wow..it worked like wonder... But can you tell me why I got that error(invalid authorization). Because that is my id and I have created that gdg base.. I should be having access to that base ..Can you calrify that.

Thanks a lot

Anand

Anand_r,

I guess your shop is SMS managed and in that case it does not allow you to delete the base along with gens with FORCE option. That is the reason as to why you are getting an INVALID AUTHORIZATION TO EXECUTE FUNCTION

On the other hand you delete all the gens ,then SMS knows that the base has no links and lets you delete the GDGBASE as if it were a normal Sequential dataset.

Hope this helps...
