One of the differences between PDSes and PDSEs is that PDSEs reclaim the space of deleted members. In order for that to be done, however, the PDSE address space needs to know that the member is no longer in use so it is safe for the space to be reclaimed. If the space cannot be reclaimed at the time of deletion, which is typical if the PDSE is LLA managed, there are other opportunities where PDSE will try to reclaim the space as part of normal processing. IEBPDSE with the PerformPendingDelete parameter is a means to force the processing to occur. Please do note that this process will still only reclaim space from deleted members that are not in use.
