Based on the UNCATA option setting, chances are that CA 1 will do the un-catalog from the MVS/Catalog once the volume is scratched. For CA 1, there is also a batch job (TMSUNCAT) that takes the output from TMSCLEAN (the scratch list) and will un-catalog all entries. This is useful for sites with unique un-shared MVS/Catalogs but use a single shared TMC. Or for clients that want to improve the performance of TMSCLEAN (doing thousands of un-catalog's takes a lot of time, so this off-loads that process).

Wouldn't removing the obsolete GDGs from the user catalogs also clean up TMC "catalog controlled" entries during the next scratch run? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
