Hi Dave,
For LNKLSTd PDSEs, modules deemed to be in use aren't "removed" from the PDSE, which could cause shortage of directory blocks or space. I usually have to run it twice. The first time is without a PARM, the second time with PARM='PerformPendingDelete,NoAnalysis'.

Please see: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.idau100/pdsexmp4.htm

Regards,
David

Never heard of the utility.  Why would that be needed?

Hi Dave,
If it's a Linklisted PDSE, you also may have to run IEBPDSE after the members 
are deleted.

Regards,
David
