We are trying to sort DASD addresses and it puts the alpha addresses in front of the numerics. I seem to remember a long time ago, we used an alternate sort sequence for something like this.
Does anyone use this?

Otherwise an appropriate "online" velocity goal should be used for production and development/test. Note that the number of engines really matters here. Search the archives for references to John Arwe's white paper (dated now, but still valid) to see what I mean. On our SAP LPARs (DB2 back end only on z/OS), I run all the DB2 tasks in SYSSTC since the work is variable and the "real priority" is controlled under the SAP subsystem type for the ICLI (prior to DB2 V8) and via DDF enclave service classes (DB2 V8+). Again... search the archives, this topic has been covered many times.
