We recover dasd space from inactive users, but we use VMARCHIVE.  The
files are archived for two years and then the userid is removed from
the directory.  VMARCHIVE is better than VMBACKUP because it has the
mechanism to keep track of how long files should be preserved and
the mechanism to purge them when they expire.  Our process is mostly
manual, I think we use the VMRMUA utility to identify users who have
not used their userids in 500 days.
