Caleb,
HTF do you buy an RVA without IXFP? Ed's right, you'll have to dump,
reinit, and restore your volumes in order to reclaim NCL. If you're at 85%
NCL, your box has been sick for a long time. RVA without IXFP just doesn't
make sense. You would have been better off spending your money on a Shark
or an EMC.

Tom Conley

Subject: RVA: How to free up space from deleted datasets wtihout IXFP
Hello,
We have a RVA with NCL nearing 85%. We don't have IXFP. We are trying to
free up space to bring down the NCL. The deleted dataset space from os/390
is not freed up in rva. From the docs and the archives post, we know that
we need to run dynamic ddsr and interval ddsr. But this is part of ixfp
and we currently don't have this sw.
Without IXFP, is there no other way to reclaim spaces from deleted
datasets ? The redbook seems to indicate that IXFP was an option, if this
is the case, then there should be some other way to reclaim spaces outside
of ixfp.
Outside of ixfp, is there any manual procedure that you could do to
reclaim the space from deleted datasets ? it doesn't have to be online,
any procedure , even those that require downtime on the rva.
thanks in advance.
Caleb
