Number of Backup Versions

Data set Deleted from Primary (MC). This optional field can be defined 0 to 13, or blank. The default is 1. When this field is defined with a number, the number indicates the maximum number of backup versions of the data set to keep in the backup pool. When this field is defined with 0, all backup versions are deleted from the backup pool once IXMAINT detects that the data set is deleted. When this field is defined with a blank, unlimited versions will be kept.
