We are in the process of directing files that normally went to VTS technology 
to new DS8100 disk.  This is being done via SMS.  Does anyone know if it is 
possible to direct the MAXSORT SORTOUxx files to disk.  I ran a test and it 
allocates the first SORTOUxx on the DS8100 disk but then fails saying 
insufficient SORTOUxx dd statements.  If I run the old way it allocates the 
first 
SORTOUxx to the VTS and then dynamically allocates 5 more to the VTS.  
Someone indicated that they think that Syncsort realizes it is not on tape 
therefore does not allocate the additonal SORTOUxx files.  We only have 32 
3592 tape drives and think we will have a problem if we have to direct the 
SORTOUxx to them (we have 128 VTS tape drives).
