Thus--unless of course the version of DB2 in use in his shop is improbably
old--this issue is moot. As others have already noted, the XTIOT was developed
chiefly for DB2; and its use by DB2 obviates TIOT-sizing problems related to
DB2 and any need for a DB2 DBA to make the TIOT proper larger.
Others may of course go along for the ride, electing to use the XTIOT (as
DFSORT has already done). There is BSAM, QSAM and BPAM support for the use of
the XTIOT in z/OS 1.12; and I/O-intensive applications should use it.
