The RestartPlus Run Time Module has the feature to delete existing datasets in production run, in case they exists already and the parameter disposition is set to “new” in the JCL.

The only affected datasets are those residing on “Extended Address Volumes” or EAV (The feature works as expected for datasets not residing on EAV).
The Run Time Module logs that the datasets were deleted, which is incorrect: They are only uncatalogued.

Jobs do not run as expected. Instead they fail with a JCL error.
