The contents of aux store is not byte addressable, rather there is a totally different address schema used for page datasets. Wayne Driscoll Product Developer JME Software LLC NOTE: All opinions are strictly my own.

Yes,that's where I got puzzled.If you can have unlimited paging data sets,it meas that you have unlimited auxiliary storage.But just like real storage,you must assign each piece of aux a unique address to identify it.And if your aux exceed 2G,how can you address it? -- Best Regards, Johnny Luo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
