You should never link in MW mode if you like the data on a CMS minidisk,
never, never, never (or almost never).
So, change that into

of

The advantage of linking MR is that you

Kris and others already covered it, but I'll stress it once more: get
into the habit of always using MR instead of MW. Then if you realy
need MW, you will stop and think. And think again.
I agree with George re backing up CF1. Always backup CF1 that has been
tested with IPL onto CF2

Nope. Once CP has put spool files there, the only way to get it free

Murphy's law dictates a small change in the order of things.
With the order you propose there is a time window where the SYSTEM CONFIG
does not know the new spool volume, but CP uses it for new spool files. If
CP goes down in that window, all spool files with some parts of the new

I'd say something happened to the stage separator (vertical bar) while
it transferred from your inbasket to the 3270 session. If you cannot

And I extoll the value of going in the opposite direction: reserving SLOTs at
the very top
of the CP_OWNED list for more than enough SPOOL volumes.
It's a viable approach. The only concern I'd raise is that no matter how many
slots you reserve, the probability of hitting the end of that

Technically, paging space, but that data doesn't persist across IPLs so
the order of paging volumes isn't important.
Spool is the only thing you could mess up.
And remember that system data files are saved in spool space, so
included with spool (and the potential to be messed up)
are NSS, DCSS, IMG, UCR, NLS, and TRF files.
