How can you delete a set of datasets using a wildard?
Example:
If I have the following datasets:
HLVL.XXX.YYY.TEST1
HLVL.XXX.YYY.TEST2
HLVL.XXX.YYY.TEST3.abc
HLVL.XXX.YYY.TEST4
HLVL.XXX.YYY.TEST5
HLVL.XXX.YYY.TEST6.xyz
etc..
and I want to to delete in a bacth jcl job
all datasets that start with:
HLVL.XXX.YYY.T*
Thanks |

Just note that you have to use the level down to the node, i.e.
HLVL.TTT.YYY.TEST1.*
HLVL.TTT.YYY.TEST2.*
will work
HLVL.TTT.YYY.TEST*
or
HLVL.TTT.YYY.T*
will not. |

Hi Yianis..
Even the below code snippet also deletes the dataset by using the wildcards.
//STEP01 EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
DELETE HLVL.XXX.YYY.*
