Finally, if the datasets is 4-5GB and you want to have a ton of jobs read it as fast as possible, then on HDS storage consider putting the file in FlashAccess if you have HDS Arrays. This is functionally the same as Solid State Disk (remember those), and it won't matter what sort of disk and parity scheme you are using.
Last but not least: dataset in DASD box cache can any type you want, while Hiperbatch is limited to SAM and ESDS (AFAIR) organizations.

Can I tell the machine "this volume have to be whole in cache" ? -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
