I am not sure this behavior of an RC14, which is returned when an HDEL is issued against a dataset that does not exist, can be changed. But what I might do is create a sequential file with the datasets to be HDEL'd Then I would use a REXX to 1) Verify the dataset exists Then issue the HDEL 1a) That it exists on ML1 Then issue the HDEL 2) If the dataset does not exist Then bypass the dataset I would issue the HDEL for every dataset that match condition(s) 1 (1a) Of course I would wonder why you need to manually delete HSM L1 datasets rather than letting DFSMShsm handle that for you Lizette ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
