Example 20: Using MODIFY to delete uncataloged copies


This job example uses MODIFY to delete uncataloged copies.

//ACPEX20  JOB (PACP),'EXAMPLE 20',CLASS=Q,MSGCLASS=X,NOTIFY=&SYSUID
//**********************************************************************
//*
//* Run MODIFY to delete entries from SYSIBM.SYSCOPY and BMCXCOPY
//* that are older than the third most recent full copy.
//* Image copy data sets associated with the deleted copy entries
//* are deleted from the MVS catalog.
//*
//* Since ANALYZE YES is coded, COPY PLUS reports which entries
//* would be deleted, but no deletes are done.
//*
//* This example demonstrates the following features of COPY PLUS:
//*
//*  - Restart parm NEW/RESET to allow the job to be restarted from
//*    the beginning by re-submitting the job without changes.
//*  - Wildcarding in the TABLESPACE specification
//*  - Wildcarding in the EXCLUDE specification
//*  - ICFDELETE YES to delete image copy data set that are associated
//*    with the copy entries that are being deleted.
//*  - ANALYZE YES to cause COPY PLUS to report which entries would
//*    would be deleted without deleting anything.
//*
