With the newer DASD where the z/OS location may change actual disk
location upon deletion of a data set, how do you prove the true disk
area has been wiped?  How do you find out the true location(s) of the
data set in the first place?  There can be multiple z/OS disks on a
single true disk or the multiple z/OS disks can be split among some
different number of true disks.
