Backup programs, without additional system tuning, bring out the worst in MDC. They tend to be read once and write once with the data and therefore little advantage for MDC. Configuring such that the backup programs have SET MDC INSERT OFF or NOMDC minidisks is generally a good idea. Bill Bitner - VM Performance Evaluation - IBM Endicott - 607-429-3286
