This <a href="http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php">program </a> allows you to delete those stuck files respond to delete attempts with errors like "File in use" or just won't delete for some unknown reason. I usually set them to delete on restart, but there are MANY options and it has saved my butt more than once. Good Luck! -Flame ****************************++ Is this program applicable to the iSeries? John

Schedule a time (you need a dedicated system), and run RCLSTG from the console. I recommend doing this ASAP, as there may be more problems, that are currently hidden, but will not be hidden for much longer. This command will end with a report and objects are moved to lib QRCL were you can delete it.

I have tried RCLSTG….

RCLSTG doesn’t have much to do with damaged objects, so there wasn’t much use in trying it. It probably was a significant waste of time.

And I’m not sure what was meant by STRSST to do a special IPL….. SST and IPLs don’t have much, if anything, to do with each other that I’m aware of.

Regardless, after a normal IPL was the object available for delete? If not, can you use MOVOBJ to move the object to a new library? If so, can you then delete the library? If not, can you move the object to QTEMP?
