Hi,

I am trying to delete a dataset that is on an sms managed pack but according to the error message the dataset is flagged as non sms.

IEC614I SCRATCH FAILED - RC 008, DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION IS (04060020),

I have tried uncataloging the dataset & deleting it but both fail with this message.

Any thoughts as to how I sort the catalog issue out.

Thanks Jimeng

Thanks, I have seen this APAR but i have 40 + datasets over 40 SMS volumes and removing them from SMS managed will be complicated as there are a lot of other datasets on these volumes.

Have you tried ISMF?

Have you tried DELETE NVR (or DELETE VVR)

Sometimes you need to also include the CATALOG name with a DELETE due to catalog / dataset name mismatch. Take a look at which catalog is specified in the VVDS record for the dataset, if it exists.

IEHPROGM may be another utility to investigate.

Also, I recall a similar problem and used DFdss PHYSICAL DUMP and DELETE of the datasets to remove them, with a RESTORE to restore them and reallocate them with their correct SMS attributes assigned.

And failing all else, AMASPZAP to zap the VTOC entriy.
