I find it convenient to generate stand-alone GCS applications with SGROUP=YES and avoid the recovery machine when I can. If you just have VTAM with VSCS running in the same virtual machine and no other VTAM apps (or are willing to run them inside the VTAM virtual machine also), then a single user GCS configuration is nice. It's also excellent for non-SNA RSCS configurations. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
