Me too!
Clearly, Gil has given the matter already quite some thougth. His arguments
look very valid to me.

I seem to recall reading a document on a proposed re-write of device
allocation processing that would remove the serialization that makes the
IEF238D message so damaging.
If anyone can help find it for me I would much appreciate it.
Thanks in advance

You can do it with an exit specified in MPFLSTxx member.
For example I have an exit (DCSAEXIT) which displays CSA usage if you enter
the command D CSA
The entry in MPFLST00 looks like this :
.CMD USEREXIT(DCSAEXIT)
