Hi,
I am trying to run the ADRDSSU (Dfdss) pgm to release unused space in the datasets.

The JCL is like this

//DSSREST EXEC PGM=ADRDSSU,PARM='UTILMSG=YES'
//INDD DD DSN=T54VSFW.IMSLLIST.DATA,DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
RELEASE -
FILTERDD(t61v01h.t.imstdu62.**) -
FORCECP (0)
/*
Even though i have eligible datasets, the job gives a RC of 4 with the following message

ADR470W (001)-RLSE0(02), NO DATA SETS SELECTED FOR PROCESSING

Can someone help ?

You are welcome to suggest alternatives, For example, there is a free command u can use in the 3.4 DSLIST option to free unused space and also this can be done with FileAid. But I want to use a JCL and automate it.

Please let me if you can use the File Aid FREE command in batch with Filtering criteria like in the JCL above

ahethaysham ahmed,

You should use INCLUDE/EXCLUDE condition for filtering the datasets. The parm filterdd is used with a DDNAME.You have given the dataset name with a wild card.

so change it to include and run the job.

Hope this helps...

cheers
