Sorry, I meant (MOD,DELETE,DELETE). (OLD,DELETE,DELETE) should probably work too. I tend to use the former as it works even if the DSN does not exist.

I understand that they didn't change IEFBR14. It is now treated by the OS as a "special" program. This caused some controversy on IBM-MAIN because it introduces an inconsistency. On the other hand, it is a very useful inconsistency.

The enhancement in z/OS 1.11 is that Batch Allocation/Unallocation processing is checking to see if the program name is exactly 'IEFBR14', and if so, for migrated data sets whose DISP is DELETE, it simply HDELETEs them without HRECALLing them. DISP=(*,DELETE) is applicable.

I ran with PARM='CSIUTIL SCAN MIGR' to get a listing of datasets that would have been deleted and got no output.
