HBDELETE against Million dataset
Posted: Thu Feb 16, 2012 6:53 pm
Hi all,
Automatic HSM dataset backup is enabled 4 Storage Groups since last 10 years. Also, we have set Expire after Days Non-usage as NOLIMIT in the management class attribute. So almost millions of datasets are reside in HSM tape. Now, wants to clean all the datasets(HBDELETE) with older than 1/2 years. Each datasets on the HSM tapes are different versions.
Now we are doing HLIST against all the datasets and HBEDLETE issued with help of simple REXX code. It already took too much time. Still, lot have to do. Is there other way to do with less time.
I have referred HSM Guide - DFSMShsm Managing ur own data. But not helpful. Can anyone done before ? Please share !!!!!
