Hello Bruce, this ASM module uses following macros: NAME (to locate), UCATDX (to descatlg) and SCRATCH (to delete).
This 'long process' (12hour) is a batch that executes thousands of file deletes and it loads this module and it passes differents parameters. This module is prepared to execute different function with every paramater passed (delete scratch, hdelete, delete noscratch). We are converting SYSVTOC to global ENQ and we have an active VTOCIX on the disk volume. Perhaps the 'bug' is at architecture of this module. We will revise it.
