Fyi, I have submitted a requirement to IBM for just this type of processing. It should be possible for installations to set procedures so that when the dump is gone the rest of the files get deleted. And mass deletes would be helpful.

Batch method to clean up Incident Log? How do we clean up unreasonably large numbers of duplicate Incident Log entries? Is there a good programmatic way to do it? Aside from assigning the virtual equivalent of making somebody write on the chalkboard "I will not leave MATCHLIM undefined" 65535 times, telling them to clean up each Incident Log entry one by one. I'd also like to be able to easily locate all the Incident Log entries that don't have SVC dumps any more because somebody simply deleted them. I suppose one could hack into the /var directory and figure it out but I already tried similar things and broke my sandbox repeatedly. If nobody has such a thing, I'll take another run at it.
