Interesting thought, Elardus, but I'm just going to leave it alone for 
now.

It's not like I don't have anything to keep me busy.  :-)

Probably yes. Perhaps the (previous) owners wanted to keep them due to 
some policy/rule.

Is it possible for you to list them by 'last used' date and then 
backup/dump them before going to have HSM deal with them 21000 datasets?

Of course, I'm aware that such step could change the expired status of 
those datasets, but I'm just wondering...
