Alain, The control block "hints" that Alan provided are only relevant when running z/OS under z/VM. The information does not apply when running z/OS in a separate LPAR from the z/VM system.

Since I a not a hard Control Block game= r it was bit empiric for me. I thougt to test the RDEVSID today with no conviction. Now that you help me this way I have something more concrete to look at. This would work in both cases when we are working : - in LPAR mode (21 partitions) - in D/R when our 14 MVS are under VM Is this info was missing to JR and you ? Alain
