Steve, Why not just allocate a bigger VTOC. The argument is that the regular shuffling of thousands of CYls into contiguous extents to save one or two cyls on a VTOC is valuable exercise. I don't see it. I would give the Storage Admin help and guidance on sizing a VTOC, and how to reallocate a larger one. Ron
