If you have specified AUTODELETE(YES) for a log stream, and you also manage that log stream with a resource manager and a resource manager exit, note that automatic deletion processing takes precedence over the delete override processing performed by the resource manager exit. This means that log data can be deleted even when a delete request is rejected or overridden by the resource manager user exit. In general, IBM® suggests AUTODELETE(NO), especially for log streams that are backed up by a resource manager.
