Re: SORTWK space usage

2023-07-03 Thread Doug Shupe
Billy, Am only trying to present a possible option. The number of volumes and available space is shop dependent. Best to grab a sort manual and go through the possible option then test. The expert, Sri Kolusu many have thoughts on best practice. Is the input disk or tape ? It makes a difference.
