Jim, Thanks for the response. I guess BLSR is not a good comparison since it has its own way of intercepting the I/O [not by replacing ACBINRTN], so the question remains. Hopefully, I'll test this out in a week or so. Meanwhile, I am confirming that DYNALLOC during SSI Open does indeed hang on

Re: Why Backup To Tape?

We can't afford the bandwidth to have a DISK/SAN offsite to do backups for DR and we really don't have that much production DASD (1.5-2 TB of production data). If you are backing up to DISK/SAN on site what do you do for DR? If you site is damaged: fire, water, earthquake, plane, ect. Then

I started in the 60s with an IBM709, then went on to 360s in the 70s, 370s in the 80s and 90s but I have been constrained to a PC for the past ten years or so. Pursuant to the research briefly described in the note below, I will have to run simulation models with 1000s of first and zero
