It's a control block thing. It doesn't cost anything; it can protect you from future growth problems. The last two shops I worked at had 20 volumes allocated in most dataclasses. I would recommend the 59 vol max. It doesn't cost; it can save. Especially, since only the secondary allocation size is 'remembered' on all future volumes. - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
