You should be able to do a DELETE gds NVS with a FILE(dd) pointing to the volser where the orphaned dataset resides. If you need to get the dataset back, you need to redefine the gdg base and do a DEFINE NVSAM(gds) RECATALOG to get each gds associated with the recreated gdg base. If each gds is not SMS-managed and is single volume, you should be able to redefine the gdg base, use tso panel 3.4 to bring up the dataset in the list and issue C on the operator line next to the dataset.
