Can't let an opportunity like that slip .... ;-) Gotta add some weight although I've not even looked at Steves offerings. Early in my time at Amdahl I had the opportunity to attend MVS Internals and dump classes even though we were all hired because we had experience. Most useful. Jerry Ng and associates do dump sessions at Share - the notes are handy even if you can't make it. There should be a diagnostic techniques manual still doing the rounds, and a redbook or two. You find lots of things from just ferreting around in a dump - try it in your no-doubt copious free time ... :) Shane ...
