One of my coworkers ran a compress against a production file during prime
time

I've always found it curious that so many times compress is done without using DISP=OLD. That seems "nasty" to me (at least if you like your data sets to continue working).

Peter, I suspect it's a carry-over from the days when DISP=OLD did reserves on shared DASD. I may be wrong.
