I also took awhile for VM/VTAM to convert from the old method to SES/E installation.

Perhaps a few > added sections in the PPF file(s) . . . . . ? The networking product set never really embraced SFS, primarily, I believe, due to the lack of customer demand. The phone lines were never burning up with flames from irate customers. I don't believe SFS reliability was ever an issue since it isn't in the VTAM runtime environment. But, sure, if you're up to overriding the PPF as Kris suggested, then go ahead. Except for the configuration disk (298) and the run disk (29A), I don't think there's anything that can't live in SFS.
