Restriction: Only tape librarians are authorized to delete an owner ID.

To delete an owner ID:

1. Select Option 4 (DELETE) on the Owner Menu.
2. Enter the owner ID that you want to delete. Press ENTER.

   If you did not request the confirm delete option and the owner ID you specified still owns volumes, DFSMSrmm displays the DFSMSrmm Delete Owner panel.

3. If you want to optionally transfer ownership of existing volumes to another user, type the owner ID to which existing volumes should be transferred on the DFSMSrmm Delete Owner panel. Press ENTER. The owner ID you type must already be defined to DFSMSrmm. DFSMSrmm then deletes the owner ID and transfers ownership of existing volumes to a new owner ID. If you do not want to transfer ownership to a new owner, delete the volumes using the DFSMSrmm ISPF dialog or RMM DELETEVOLUME subcommand.
