RE: [SYSTEM21] Re-Use deleted Records

We use RGZDTALIB (Reorganize Data Base Files In Library) from JBA Tools.
Does a good job of "weed-whacking" all the white space out of files within
entire libraries (make sure you've taken down dependent subsystems/jobs!:)

Subject: [SYSTEM21] Re-Use deleted Records

Hi everybody,

        as part of a regular routine, we do reorganise the physical files 
in our OSL libraries to purge deleted records, since some of these files 
have grown to quite large figures and for some of them, the number of 
deleted records is quite a high percentage of the total number of records. 
RGZPFM takes quite some time to complete, especially when there are many 
logicals that have to be re-indexed. We would like to know if would be 
safe to change the 'RE-USE DELETED RECORDS' attributes of such files to 
*YES. Anybody has done that already without any problem? 

Rgds
