Thank you all for the input. The datasets already exist and testing with an allocate then free in TSO does not show any updating in the SMF60 record for the VVDS NVR records. :( I like the see-who-complains approach, but unfortunately most of the victims will be end users, and the developers of the CLISTs/Rexx/dialog are usually long gone, so the brown water will come back to us!
The IGD104I messages list both the dataset name and DDNAME for the TSO users, so if there are no other suggestions, I'll let the owner of the retired system pour over the OPERLOGs then scan for the DDNAMEs.
