Hi All,

Is there a tool or way to delete the old files based upon the reference date of PS. This will considerably saves lot of disk space in mainframe systems.

For example, Consider the first qualifier as 'DATX00D.*'
I wanna want to delete the PS that starts with 'DATX00D.*' having reference date from <start_date> to <End_date>.

Any tool (REXX) or methods are really very helpful.

Thanks
Ashok Kumar K.

What are you trying to conceal by overriding the data set retention policies established by your storage management group?
