I am trying to remember....
Somewhere in the last 40+ years there was a SAS job that altered the
MCDS (or was it the BCDS)?
It ran through the entire CDS in a few minutes and then you would run
expirebv and magically all those datasets would evaporate.
I am trying to remember where the SAS job came from but cannot say
for sure but it might have come from Berry Merrils(sp?) collection of
SAS jobs, I just do not remember sorry. But somewhere out there is a
a SAS job that marks the HSM cds's properly for clean up.

John, HBDELETE would be great if you could use a LEVEL parameter,
scary, but certainly better than having to run a million lines of JCL.

Look up the HDELETE command for migrated data sets; HBDELETE for
backup data sets. I'm at home now. I have some helper stuff at
work. I'll look for some stuff tomorrow.

Is there anything short of generating millions of lines of JCL. Is
there any way to get HSM to delete these backups?
