From things I'm learning, it sure seems putting anything you can in autlog1 rather than system config is a good thing. I have a new vm IFL that is being configured on another mainframe and I'm moving all my modify vswitches in system config to grants in autolog1.

Having just added two more grants to my SYSTEM CONFIG file, I'm wondering if there is any advantage to having them all here as opposed to doing them dynamically in AUTOLOG1's profile.

The advantage to doing them in AUTOLOG1 is that I already have a list of images there that I want to bring up, and could easily run through the list to do the grant just before autologging them. I could even run through the lists for all the systems so that the grants would be in place if an image needed to move from on system to the other. This way, I could maintain one list, and would be able to do it from my userid, instead of having to log into MAINT.

Is there a disadvantage to doing it this way, over having them defined in SYSTEM CONFIG? Is there a memory advantage to doing them in SYSTEM CONFIG?

This is just the type of thing I sit here and think about on Fridays....
