On z/OS 2.2 I just used it to start two SMP/E on different CSI. A rudimentary test succeeded. It does no ALLOCATE nor LIBDEF nor ALTLIB. I had wondered how SMP/E avoids DDNAME conflicts on SMPCSI. A TSO LISTALC shows that **.GLOBAL.CSI are allocated to two different generated DDNAMEs. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
