Turning on SYSMGR mode will let you issue the call. Unfortunately 
you can't do this through the CLI. What you should do is write a 
little program to turn on SYSMGR through the ?SYSPRV call and then 
issue the ?CLRDV call. BTW, you will need a profile with SYSMGR privilege
in order to turn on SYSMGR mode.
