>Ted, as long as you don't hit the max number defined in IEASYSxx/PAGTOTL. ...
PAGTOTAL=256 (I also do similar things for the maximum number of JES-SPOOL, ASID's, TIOT, systems in a CFRM policy, etc. I asked for the last once, back in 1994. The SYSPROG said “No, we only have 5 systems.” You can imagine the problems we had when we went to 6. He still only wanted to change the limit to 6. I said, make it 16 (the max at the time), and had to escalate. What are we saving by trimming the maximums? I had a senior performance analyst drop the DB2 buffer pool sizes when we went to GDPS and PPRC. Because of the possibility of something being in memory at the time of a disaster. I may have won that argument after two years of discussion; I'll never know because the resolution was still only a possibility, when I got down-sized. My winning points: 1. The journals/logs are also under PPRC. 2. We kill performance `just in case?`. -teD In God we Trust! All others bring data! -- W.
