Cleanup of IFS

[Mike Berman <mikeba777@xxxxxxxxx>]

I This raises a question for me of general cleanup of the IFS. I have no idea 
where to find info on this. Are there Cleanup procedures/options there similar 
to Cleanup on the AS/400?

9=Recursive Delete but I assume you want it in a CL or some program 
so intead of writing your own use the DELTREE from IFSTOOL
