That *is* a cool idea. I can submit it as a WAVV requirement; the VSE lab is a lot more cooperative about that sort of thing, and the WAVV guys tend towards the VSE environment more than SHARE does. I doubt z/OS would ever use it (although it would be a very elegant way to get FBA and SCSI disk support into z/OS in short order...) I wonder how difficult writing a VSAM to SFS block store driver would be... hmm. Another project to do *later*...
