Could you send us a sample how to run ICKDSF with the INIT parameter.... then
its verified empty :)
<snip>
If you only want to verify that it *is* empty without deleting anything
that's left on the volume, something along the lines of DFSMSdss DUMP
DATASET INCLUDE(**) with PARM='TYPRUN=NORUN' will tell you whether any
data sets remain on the volume without actually dumping any data.
IEHLIST LISTVTOC FORMAT will also show whether there are any data sets
on the volume.
If you want to logically delete anything that's left, ICKDSF INIT will
do that, but it will not overwrite or erase the actual data (for which
there are other operations like INSPECT with CHECK and TRKFMT with
ERASEDATA).
