I don't know much about MIM but as the doctor says "then don't do
that"... Have you considered to get away from the DASD control file as
the primary control file?  If the sharing is all inside the scope of a
parallel Sysplex you could use list structures in a coupling facility.
This is what we do though admittedly we only use MIA as we are using
only GRS for serialization and never used MIC.  If not Coupling Facility
then perhaps you could use CTCONLY.

Hi Mark:

        We start all of our MIMGR address spaces through MIMASC.

        We have taken GTF traces, at STKs recommendations.

        We have not taken a system dump, because STK feels that the
problem is in the channel subsystem.

                        Thanks,
