The primary requirement is that the CP directory of all involved systems is managed in some way by a single organization. Use of distributed IUCV requires that you control at least the userids. And like you describe, when you share mini disks you must control allocation of those shared mini disks. Whether with DIRMAINT or with home grown tools. I believe the requirement for PVM makes it very unattractive for installations to move forward with that next level of CSE. The change to use ISFC for that is long overdue. We can only hope this will change when exciting new function for CP in that area is made available. Rob
