Hi list, Is the BLSR subsystem (batch local shared resources) still a viable/valuable thing or has it been replaced by something bigger/better/faster? I seem to be stuck in the mid-90s because the most current documentation I can find on it is from MVS/ESA 5.1 dated 1994. Is there more current documentation on how to use it and how it works? Has it been replaced and deprecated? I just had a developer use it last week and experienced a 40+ reduction in I/Os but I wanted to read up on its limitations - especially around using it on a shared VSAM dataset. However I can't find anything newer than 25+ years old. I did multiple internet searches which is where I found the ESA manual. I checked the knowledge center and my own z/OS 2.2 and 2.4 collections all to no avail.
