Why am I receiving a PRF0879E "Not permitted to delete dataset" message while extracting data, when I was able to do do in my previous release?

Environment

z/OS 1.11 and above.

Resolution

On the Client's "CA Report Facility product controls" screen in the System Profile, the "Dataset Protection?" indicator was enabled (Y) & the Node was set to "1":

1) SYSP.01  r19.0    ----------      TSO  System Profile ----------   12/29 08:50 

    COMMAND==>                                                   USER ID: HAYGR01

.. This indicator was disabled in the prior release. To correct the problem, the Client disabled the indicator again:
