But when they are deleted using unallocation, as in DISP=(OLD,DELETE) or TSO FREE, there is just one type 17 record containing all of the volumes. I have seen this in the current z/OS and in MVS 3.8. It depends on whether the parameters given to the SCRATCH macro include all the volumes or just one at a time. It's something you might want to be aware of once you get past the SMS issue.
