Remove Inactive Keys Automatically

Use the AutomaticallyRemoveKeys= attribute in parmlib to remove specific instances of keys from the key repository that have been identified by the TBEKMUTL utility as no longer used by any tape data set.

Specify the following attribute in the DynamicOptions section in parmlib to remove inactive keys automatically:

AutomaticallyRemoveKeys=Y

This specifies that 90 days after an instance of a key is identified by the TBEKMUTL utility as no longer used, it is automatically removed.

Note: For information about processing and removing keys, see the Administration Guide.
