Ignored in regards to PDSE sharing, but not ignored in regards to the ability to create the SMSPDSE1 address space. At least according to the fine manual. I have 3 monoplexes that have SMSPDSE1 but all of them also specify PDSESHARING(EXTENDED), so I am not in a position to say that the documentation is wrong. Assuming the documentation is correct, one has to wonder why IBM tied the creation of SMSPDSE1 to a parm that is meaningless in a monoplex. Too bad Mark Thomen (nor anyone from DFSMSdfp) doesn't monitor this list any longer to comment.
