Question & Answer


Question

How do I delete a backing store file when using z/OSMF Configuration Assistant?

Answer

z/OSMF Configuration Assistant does not allow you to delete a currently open backing store.

Follow these steps to delete a backing store which is not currently open:

  1. From the Actions menu, select Delete. The Select a Backing Store File panel is displayed, showing a list of available files.

  2. Highlight the backing-store file you want to delete and click the Delete button.

Restriction: You can delete backing-store files from z/OSMF only; you cannot delete backing-store files from the Configuration Assistant Windows client.

For more information, see the IBM Configuration Assistant online help for the Select a Backing Store File panel.
