Hi,

I have a VSAM KSDS dataset defined with Shareoption (2 3) or (3 3). I want to delete the dataset even when someone or some programs are processing the dataset. I'm aware that it is not possible by using DELETE with PURGE. I would like to know if there is anyother way to do it?

Also, if my VSAM dataset is being processed by someone or someother program, I want to free it and process it. The other program may continue processing after my job gets its execution completed. How could I do this using JCL and using REXX?
