Hello Bob, Thank you very much, This question came up because we had some Datasets in our site that were being migrated for eternity (NOLIMIT) and verify some of these datasets we decided to change it so they would stay for a month.
I made the change and nothing happened during PSM or SSM. I thought that something would have happened because we had data sets more than three years old. I peformed a listcat on one of the datasets and found out that these datasets had and expiration date assigned by DB2. I kept on looking for an explination and found out that if I don't have the parameter EXPIREDATASETS(SCRATCH) that hsm will not expire these datasets and less delete then. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
