Hi Tom,
I guess you need:

FC 4017 Cluster Cleanup can be run. FC 4017 is required if the removed
cluster is going to be reused. A Cluster Cleanup removes the previous data
from cache and
returns the cluster to a usable state, similar to a new TS7700 from
manufacturing, keeping the
existing feature codes in place. Both feature codes are one-time use
features.

In terms of cache, you can only delete lvols with Purge from the z/OS side,
scratch on RMM (or on other tape mgmt), scratch on TCDB and if the library
on ISMF has  eject=PURGE than execute the ejects cmds.

HTH, A.Cecilio
