So it will depend on what Address space "owns" the dataset. If CICS, then there are vendor tools to close and open files to CICS.
Please provide a little more detail on what "owns" the file. If the address space was not written to allow dynamic allocation/deallocation of a file, then you will need to see how to accomplish that. If it is a vendor product, contact the vendor If it is a home grown process, review the code to see if what you want can be incorporated into the function.
