  This APAR provides the following Disaster Recovery
  (DR) function enhancements:
  
  1. PURGE option is added for IDCAMS DELETE commands in DR PDS.

  period, PURGE option is added for IDCAMS DELETE commands in the
  following DR PDS members:
   ssidDBDL
   ssidDELC
   ssidDELR
  ssidDBDL is generated in DR PDS, if "Global" specified
  for "DBDS Delete/Define Option". If "PDS" is specified
  for "DBDS Delete/Define Option", ssidDBDL member is not
  generated in DR PDS. Instead, DEL/DEF command is generated in
  the DEL/DEF PDS.

  New option "Archive OLDS at DR site" is added to the
  "Update Disaster Recovery Profile panel (BSY$DPRM)".

  DR site.
  If you use the default setting, OLDS archiving processing is the
  same as before applying the APAR.
  
  3. New option "Delete all SUBSYS in RECON" is added.
  
  New option "Delete all SUBSYS in RECON" is added to the
