Which in this case, (deleting shadow files) is probably not a good idea ;)

And there needs to be a distinction between deleteing the shadow files
using "external" host commands, versus the Hercules sf- (remove shadow
file) command which by default will MERGE the shadow file into the
original dasd (unless the original dasd's config definitions have the
-ro (read only) option)

The (missing) js3xx,  js2xxx  shadow file definitions are causing the
errors for OP

I just used the supplied config file (conf /t3upd.conf), which already
has the shadow definitions in it, and I'm sure that's why I didn't get
the errors.
