Dennis, Thanks. It worked. I was able to delete the orphan (duplicate) DATA & INDEX components from volume SYS013. The CLUSTER/DATA/INDEX which reside on another volume - SYS001 - is intact.
To answer other questions. There is an existing CLUSTER/DATA/INDEX on another volume SYS001. They have the same name as the erroneous orphan components. I think the user must have done an NSCR on the original cluster - volume SYS013 - then re-defined the CLUSTER/DATA/INDEX on volume SYS001. Thanks to all who answered my post. -------------------------------------------- On Tue, 5/13/14, Givens, Dennis W. <dennis.giv...@cnasurety.com> wrote: Subject: Re: DELETE VSAM COMPONENTS To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Received: Tuesday, May 13, 2014, 10:41 AM Willie, Had the same problem this past weekend.

The problem is that there is a CLUSTER along with the same DATA & INDEX component names which reside on another voume. Is there a way deleting the errant components? Both volumes are SMS managed.
