[color=green]Folks,
I’d like to know if there is an SMS exit of any kind that can front end the ISMF process of removing a volume from a storage group such that it could check the volume and only allow it to be removed from the storage group if it is empty.

I would be thankful if you give me some tips on this. Thanks. [/url][/code]

Not that I know of, but I can not see why you can not script something in REXX to check that the volume is empty.

Use REXX to call IDCAMS DCOLLECT or IEHLIST to list any datasets on the volume.

Unless I have already written such code I will not create code unless for payment, in this case 500 euro.

Then what better way than with a real task to perform.
