New CEATOOL Parameter to delete an Incident by the SVC-Dump Name

The CEATOOL has actually only the parameter RETPD to filter which Incidents should be deleted.
We need a new parameter to filter the incident deletion by the name of the svc-dump name stored in the sysplex dump directory.

    Hello, yes youe are right. It is not helpful to delete all dumps in a range. We need the availability to delete a single dump by its name.
    Thanks for your offer for a phone call, but I think it is clear what we want.

    Kind regards, Karl-Heinz Doppelfeld

    .Hi, Is the requested adjustment to the CEATOOL to support only a single dump dataset name at a time? CEATOOL has the ability to delete or Not delete the dump for the all the incidents found in the range. I'm guessing that function is not helpful in that your current processing is geared for one incident at a time? Let me know if you want to move this to a phone call. Thanks for your interest in CEA. Regards, Susan Demkowicz
