Any program using BDAM with calculated relative or absolute disk addresses can run afoul of device limitations; that's mainly why these types of things are discouraged. If you really think you need BDAM with calculated addresses, consider the use of VSAM RRDS instead. Fewer device dependancies and a far brighter future. :-)
Brighter future?! BDAM is supported for 1TB EAV and getting a 'facelift' with zHPF channel programs. Where's the 'darkness' in that? As long as your addresses are relative and not absolute, you are AOK!
