Hi,

You can delete them as follows.

1. Ensure the scratch category codes in DEVSUPxx is defined on the target VTS. 2. Create volume entry in the VOLCAT as follows.  If LIBNAME and/or SGNAME is not defined, define them before CREATE VOLENT.
      CREATE VOLUMEENTRY (NAME(Vvolser) LIBRARYNAME(libname) -
        MEDIATYPE(MEDIAn) LOCATION(LIBRARY) -
        STORAGEGROUP(sgname) USEATTRIBUTE(PRIVATE) RECORDING(36TRACK))
3. Add volume entry in RMM CDS as follows.
     RMM ADDVOLUME volcat STATUS(VOLCAT)
4. Release volumes in RMM as follows.
     RMM DELETEVOLUME volser RELEASE
5. Return to scratch by EDGSPLCS with INDD as follows.
     SQ volser
6. Eject the volumes as follows. Only 1,000 volumes eject request can be accepted at a time.
     RMM DELETEVOLUME volser REMOVE EJECT
    or
    EDGSPLCS with INDD as follows.
     EQ volser

Yes I have the list -- I know them by naming standard and I can do a Virtual 
Volume Search to the Cluster and get a downloadable list of volume names and 
their current category status.    I already have a REXX roughed out that 
generates the command I think I need.   But I really need to find the set of 
actions that have be performed so I can generate all the commands I need.  
Along with RMM/IDCAMS/LI requests to kill these zombies for good and eject them 
from my life.
