Correct, it's crazy. The only thing you have is the CPU (and channel I believe) busy monitor of the HMC. It's for free which immediatley indicates its value.
It is like driving a car with the windows painted black, but with a working speedometer. You won't see where and when you will crash, but you have an indication of how tough the crash will be. As for the MXI hint, I want to bet that it relies at least partly on RMF measurements. Like it is mentioned that SDSF might not work, there could be others relying on RMF. I know DB2 and DFSORT interact with RSM to determine how much storage the can use safely and this will probably not depend on RMF, but similar functions might. Kees.
