Vignesh, I think you have bigger problems than this if your scheduled backups don't run for a week and no one notices.
You can set up DFSMShsm does not delete datasets that do not have a backup.

Hello All, Recently discovered that an ADRDSSU DUMP job ignores datasets from the INCLUDE selection if the source is migrated. Looked at the documentation to find that there isn't a keyword I can use to force it to consider MIGRATx datasets too. Is this ideal, or is there a case for an RFE here? Think of a case where there's an SMS class that deletes datasets left untouched for a year or so. But there's a backup job for a dataset (in that class) that runs daily. In the case where the job hasn't run for a week or so, the dataset gets migrated, the backup job just completes without any warning (maybe?) about the exclusion of migrated datasets. So one may be led to believe the dataset is being backed up when it is not, and then after a year, it's totally gone... Thoughts? - Vignesh Mainframe Infrastructure MARKSANDSPENCER.COM ________________________________ Unless otherwise stated above: Marks and Spencer plc Registered Office: Waterside House 35 North Wharf Road London W2 1NW Registered No. 214436 in England and Wales.
