z/OS MVS Setting Up a Sysplex

If you specify RETPD(0) and AUTODELETE(YES), data is eligible for deletion as soon as you write it to the log stream. This setting is dangerous, because data can be physically deleted whether it is marked for deletion or not.

Attention: This setting is dangerous, because data can be physically deleted whether it is marked for deletion or not. If the application using the logsteam attempts to read data after the RETPD / AUTODELETE setting has already deleted the data, an ABEND1C5 RSN00000804 reflecting the "missing" data will be issued.
