I have long been annoyed by the dialog that ISPF DSLIST presents me for each VSAM data set present when I delete a bunch of data sets. I have no idea what it wants to know; I just press ENTER each time and sooner or later it finishes deleting the data set and moves on to the next one.
Today, I deleted a bunch of data sets that HSM had migrated. I noticed to my surprise and delight that it presented no dialog to confirm or alter the deletion. I will now HMIGRATE each VSAM data set before deleting a bunch. Silicon is cheaper than carbon. Yet, I wonder: if that dialog is essential, or even important, for deleting VSAM data sets, why is it not presented alike for migrated and resident VSAM data sets? I don't think I'll start a PMR on it; if IBM chose to fix it, I'd have shot myself in the foot. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
