Ooooo. that's gonna be a pretty pricey USB thumb drive. Our z/OS guys FTP to IBM their S/A z/OS dumps which terse down to about 40G (from 100,000 cylinders on 3390 DASD). Do they even make 40G thumb drives? Do you want to send one to IBM? :-)

Or maybe, since most S/A dumps are sent to IBM, you could attach an USB hard drive to one of the z9's Service Elements (laptops) and dump to it. Then just send the USB drive to IBM. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
