You are right.  Sorry I misread the original ask.

That command is for a normal dataset, not for a catalog. Use EXPORT
DISCONNECT to delete the catalog entry in the BCS.

Thanks. DELETE dsn NOSCRATCH gives me

IDC3014I CATALOG ERROR
IDC3009I ** VSAM CATALOG RETURN CODE IS 90 - REASON CODE IS IGG0CLFK-18
IDC0551I ** ENTRY CATALOG.PLI230 NOT DELETED IDC0001I FUNCTION COMPLETED,
HIGHEST CONDITION CODE WAS 8

(z/OS V2R4)

https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.4.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r4.ie
am600/idc3009i.htm tells me

Programmer Response: Specify the RECOVERY parameter. Run the job again.

So I did that. That gives me

IDC3226I INCONSISTENT PARAMETERS INVOLVING 'NOSCRATCH'
IDC3226I INCONSISTENT PARAMETERS INVOLVING 'RECOVERY'

Eliminating NOSCRATCH gives me

IDC2893I INVALID PARAMETER SPECIFIED FOR THE RECOVERY OPTION

Adding USERCATALOG in there gives me

IDC3009I ** VSAM CATALOG RETURN CODE IS 50 - REASON CODE IS IGG0CLE0-6

Explanation: A requested VVR or NVR was not found in the VVDS specified. If
present in this message, the sfi value is FOR volser, where volser is the
volume serial of the VVDS on which the error was detected. The sfi value in
message IEC331I contains characters 5 through twelve of the requested VVR
name.

(There was no IEC331I with an sfi.)

Help!

Charles
