That, unfortunately, is micro-managing. The only thing your DBA's should concern themselves about is their DBMS. Dataset placement is your concern, not theirs. As long as data is available, responsive, recoverable, and allocatable, they should have no say. If you're catering to a user area, you're micro-managing. The whole purpose of SMS was/is to remove the user areas from the management of storage. - 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
