A rolled off GDS does not get delete automatically if you specify
NOSCRATCH when you define the GDG index. In this case, the GDS becomes a
"normal" DSN (not associated with the GDG base). In this case, you can
have the management class indicate that the dataset should be archived
by DFSMShsm or some other product which implements the functionality.
