 Subj:   DASD Un-delete Command

 Does anyone know of an "un-delete" utility that could recover
 erased files from a CMS mini-disk.  I am hoping that there is
 something similar to the DOS un-delete command for VM that
 could restore directory entries.

 The background is this:  I have a fellow VM user who deleted
 everything off his 191 disk (CMS format files on 3380 or 90
 DASD) when a SAS application program ran out of work DASD
 and asked him to "clear space" to continue.  The user
 subsequently became frustrated, logged-off and didn't report the
 problem for nearly two months.  By that time, VMBACKUP had
 lost all generations of some important files that were saved on
 his 191 disk.

 If anyone can suggest such a utility, please reply as described
 below.  I recently discovered this list and am not a subscriber:
